Astronaut
Chef
Knight
Fireman
Sheep (from a nativity play)
Dragon

Though nothing wrong with having a Princess Dress. Someone has to be the Princess who is rescued from the Dragon.

Some good ideas here. Thanks.

We have an older girl, so everything is a bit slanted her way. We have about 8000 princess dresses and Disney outfits, hundreds of fairys, tutus, wings, wands, a few national costumes - a chinese dress, an abeya.

Ds has an Iggle Piggle outfit, a (pink, sparkly) catsuit that is missing a tail and a fish mask. And that's about it!

Somehow a stretchy Spidey costume just doesn't seem as exciting as a hooped crinoline with jewels and pearls and froufrou frills. And he doesn't know who Ben 10 is (yet).

I was thinking of making a little caveman fur for him.

Will also investigate chef and knight and other suggestions on the thread. Pirate is a good one.

halloween masks
ghost costumes
part of a cowboy outfit
a frilly purple party dress (ds2 loves to wear that one)
dangermouse costume
a frog costume - actually, I think that one got ruined and thrown away.
bits of a pirate costume
werewolf head and hands
witches hats
and I can't remember what else is there. Probably not much.
