It's no secret that little kids loving dressing up... just not always in ways that you can predict. I've written before about how Tuesday is our play date day at the local church hall, and that it also doubles as our go-crazy in the dress-up department, but today's choice of ballerina-mermaid-princess was unusual even for my girls!When we got home the intention was to hang a couple of Halloween decorations to play with... but the girls ended up wearing them!
Here's how to make your own Halloween Dress-up / Decorations:
- Purchase small orange paper lanterns (& construct them if they arrive flat-packed).
- Carefully draw a jack'o'lantern face onto the lantern using a permanent marker.
- Use a orange or green dollar-store necklace to attach to the lantern (we use these all the time to hang our lanterns as they are pretty and light, and sparkle in the sunshine!)
- Now hang the lantern from a fixing point, or around your neck!
Gotta love pumpkin' lovin' kids and their quirky imaginations!
Have fun people,
Linda.
