Kids fancy dress ideas

Under water creature(lobster) for preschoolers..

Materials needed are :
Handmade chart paper ,hot glue gun,satin ribbons

 

Measure the length of the costume required and that draw out a rough sketch of the creature on the back side of the chart and cut out the shapes .. preferably use double shades to give the right effect..for the above mentioned creature I have used red colour for the shell and orange for the front of the creature..
1. Make oval shape of both the colour sheets and roughly cut out the shape.
2. Draw two parallel lines and half moon shape joining the end of the parallel lines to give the shape of claws and cut off these and attach it to the oval shaped bodies..
3. Draw few shapes like the tail of animals roughly on the same sheet and Cut them off..these will be the legs of the lobster..
4. Repeat the same procedure for the shell as well as the front portion of the lobster suit..
5. Attach a stain ribbon or thread to the front side and back side of the costume and tie them around the shoulders of the kid wen they are ready to wear the costume.
6. To finish off the costume..make oval shape eyes with black dots on it and paste it on the front on the top end of the costume .
7. Make a long rectangular cut out measuring the head size of your kid and add eyes to the same and tie up satin ribbons on either ends and make it a hat for the kid..This will make it a perfect finish.
