Help with costume

[suzannened]

DS is a hailstone in school nativity. How on Earth do I come up with a costume for that?

Big piece of shimmery white card cut into a circle , white sleeved top, trousers and hat. Hold the circle by a strip of card in front of you. Can be used again as a snowball..... Thrifty me !

Thanks Olbasoil but let's hope this is the only time he gets a weather related costume! His friends all seem to be a Nativity animal of their choice - not fair!
I had an inspirational idea of using tinsel for shimmery effect - just need to work out how best to do it

Massive papier machie ball. He will LOVE it!

Can you get some sort of very large balloon, paper mâché it, cut holes for the head, arms and legs and sprinkle glitter all over. Get your child to wear white long sleeved t-shirt and white trousers. Cut the ball in half horizontally, put your child in it and join the two sides with white Sellotape. Then put a white woollen hat on him.

Yes he would LOVE being a giant ball however it's in a small church & his only stage direction is to 'run around a lot'. Cue much hilarity when he trips & goes rolling down the aisles! [grin Thanks for the ideas though - I think it'll have to be white clothes with shimmery circle of some description
