Yes dress up as your favorite character at Emily's school. Its always easier with girls because they usually have dress up stuff anyway, although I told Emily she can go as Lauren from The Secret Unicorn Books, so she can just wear normal clothes :hysterica She wanted to be a weather fairy but not really practical for this weather and p.e.day. Can you send him as Action Man or something like that?
We are like you macaroni we have book week in October and they dress up then. I sent ds as Charlie Bucket in normal clothes.
My two have come home with £1 book vouchers today.

my daughter has book day and its a pain i think , we spent an hour in the fancy dress shop last week , everything was so expensive over 30 for an outfit of dorothey from wizard of ozz:eek: in the end we hired a dress from a shop that hires them , she charged 10 which i think was good for the dress and bits .

Our school are not doing anything.
Last time youngest had to dress up was as one of her favourite nursery rhyme characters. She went as the Queen of hearts I just sewed lots of red hearts that I had painted on cardboard onto a cheap dress and her dress-up cape.
