DS2 has his class assembly tomorrow, mini beast theme. can't find the spider costume we knew we had. Any ideas please? Nowhere here sells fancy dress, and I have no DD's so no wings unfortunately to be found (3 ds's)

HELP!

Brown sleeping bag, antennae = slug

Stuff black tights to make extra legs for a new spider costume?

SoupDragon · 29/06/2006 11:21

Brown clothes, kind of brown long fridge up both sides = woodlouse with many legs

easiest is ladybird - big oval of red card with large black dots
staple/glue/sew on ribbon or tape loops and wear like a rucksack
wear with longsleeved black top and black tights/trousers
add antennae and mirrored sunglasses, and extra legs made of stuffed tights and/or black binbags twisted up and taped if you feel the need.

if ladybird deemed too girly, use shiny black card and cut antler-shaped antennae out of same shiny black card to be a Stag Beetle.

Soupy -long brown fridge ??????? You sure about that, could restrict movement somewhat?

Dress all in green & wriggle = caterpillr

Do you have one of those pop-up tunnels for the garden? I once saw a child do a fabulous impression of a caterpillar by standing up in one and shuffling along quite nimbly. You could rig up some kind of shoulder strap support to keep him from having to hold it up all the time...

LOL at these!

Off to find what we have, see which option I take- thanks! Good old MN!

(PMSL immensely)
