World book day

NAS69965

My child hates wearing dressing up clothes as its not what's worn every day. My child has no issues with other clothes, in fact loves getting dressed up fancy in normal clothes.

When I try putting on costumes my child will take them off and say no. 

What could I dress my son in for world book day?

  • There are lots of books with characters who just wear regular clothes. Can you have a think about his favourite books, and what he likes to wear, and see if you can match them up? Eg jeans & a jumper = Harry Potter character visiting Hogsmede for the weekend. Red t-shirt = diary of a Wimpy Kid. 

    My school also suggest wearing pj's "ready for a bedtime story" - might he enjoy that?

    Or if he just wants to wear school uniform, pick one of the zillions of books set in a modern primary school and say he's from that! That way he can  still join in.
