World Book Day is all about celebrating books and getting more children enthused about reading. However, some parents are less enthused and associate World Book Day with the stress of producing a fancy dress costume rather than reading.
Embrace World Book Day as an opportunity to read and talk more about books and stories with your children. Discuss your favourite books and characters from your own childhood.
Costumes don’t have to be tricky.
Make the most of onesies that you might have around the house to be different animal characters. Or, go for Roald Dahl old favourites such as Charlie Bucket, Grandma Josephine, Grandpa Jo (Charlie and the Chocolate Factory) – suitable tatty clothes and a golden ticket. Other ideas: Harry (Harry and the Bucket full of Dinosaurs) – boy clothes with a bucketful of Dinosaurs;
