My boy is going to be a pirate. He put together a really good costume from crap we already have around the house. I'm quite impressed with this 1st grader's scrounging abilities.
My girl's going to be a person walking on her hands. She'll wear a shirt as pants and sweat pants as a shirt with her head hidden in one of the legs. Shoes on her hands and gloves on her feet. And we've got this paper mache head kicking around that she's going to dangle from the neck of the shirt between her legs. So far, I'm not impressed with the look of it all, but I give her credit for her idea. She has to walk around holding her arms over her head and with shoes on her hands I don't know how she will hold on to anything. They are supposed to wear these costumes at school.
Both are pretty independent and don't want me to barge in and take over, so I'm not sure what to do about my daughter. Her costume doesn't really work. I might have to ask her about the details of this thing and let her see with her answers that it won't work as is.
