The aim of World Book Day is to encourage a love of reading, but many parents get consumed with finding a (sometimes last minute) costume of a book character to dress children in to go to school.
Finding costumes shouldn’t be expensive or a stress, so spend more time reading with your children than costume designing and take a look at some of Reading Chest’s last minute World Book Day costume ideas. All based around the everyday onesie…
TIGER ONESIE – Tiger who Came to Tea or Shere Khan in Jungle Book
RABBIT ONESIE – Percy and the Rabbit, Watership Down, Peter Rabbit.
BEAR ONESIE & a red top – Winnie the Pooh
BEAR ONESIE & red hat, blue jacket – Paddington Bear
DUCK ONESIE – Duck in a Truck
PIG ONESIE – Wilbur in Charlotte’s Web
ELEPHANT ONESIE – One of Elmer’s friends who is not so colourful!
There are so many more animal character costumes that could be made easily from onesies you are likely to have already at home. So – enjoy World Book Day 2020 and share as many stories as possible!
