Archie has to go dressed as a character out of a book to school tomorrow! I have no idea what to put him in, i have no spare material or anything so what can i do??

Maybe a trip to tesco as a last resort?

Harry Potter ?? basically a school uniform with a stripy scarf and some glasses?

A vampire from twilight? Black sheet as a cape and a bit of 'blood' dribbling from his mouth.

here are some ideas chick http://www.sillyjokes.co.uk/occasion/world-book-day/costumes.html

Ok well as all the suggestions were a no no (lol i am so not good at this stuff even after all this time) i went to tesco and got him a space trooper costume. Now i know its not strictly out of book but i bet WH Smith sell some sort of star wars book hehehe xxx

I am actually dreading Caitlin going to school for this reason. From what I hear from friends who have 4/5 year olds they almost constantly have daft projects/dressing up requirements. It always seems to be my friends sitting up until midnight painting cardboard boxes to make a bus not the child. Its almost like homework for parents and not the kids.

Caitlins gonna end up like poor ralph from the Simpsons if I dont get my act together!

Oh snoop its a bloody nightmare!! Seriously you pay out for a school uniform and they spend most of the time dressing up for this day or that day or charity! And you have to pay for the privilege!!!

especially love the last minute part...it's amazing how creative you can be the night before a costume or project is due! Just contact the school and get asked to be put on their email list for any school notices that our kids fail to bring home til the last minute! xxx

Owen is a pirate from Treasure Island home made and Lewis is James Bond. I made the pirate get up for Lewis age about 8 and have just rolled shirt sleeves up. Lewis is wearing a suit I got for him for my sisters wedding last year - pics will go on fb on Friday ... Does your school request you take the book in also! Ours does

Snoops best way is not throw stuff away... I've got a great worzel outfit I made for Lewis can't wait for it to fit Owen - and Lewis won 1st prize not that I'm competitive
