I want to send DS2 in as Captain Underpants.

Unfortunately (or fortunately) they don't do dressing up for World Book Day at their school

last willy wonka (ds1 had lovely long hair at the time) but a johnny depp version rather than original and the wicked witch of the west (painting ds2 green at 6AM)

here

You want the Badger. She's the bollocks at this. DS1 had to go in on Friday as something from Handa's Surprise and I was expecting to have to buy a bleedin giraffe costume from somewhere, but MrsB sorted me out very quickly.

shouldve known the badger would be good at this, really. so what was the solution PW?

made a very tall paper hat painted with giraffe spots (to be the neck), drew 2 giraffe profiles, stapled them to top of his hat, gave him a pineapple to carry. Dressed him in brown jogging bottoms and orange shirt.

Easy - plus dp and I had fun with paints and scissors and glue.
