My four year old came home from school the other day looking so cute I just had to share this with you!
He is dressed up as Mordechai, the hero of the Purim story, and someone we'd definately like to emulate!
His teacher made these for the whole class, and the simplicity is just too sweet! Take note of the construction of the crown, made with just three strips of gold heavy weight paper! This is the style of crown the boys always wear in school for parties, though sometimes it is a bit fancier with more strips on the top. The beard is cotton glued to a beard-shaped piece of cardboard, and the cape is a rectangle of blue fabric with just a touch of trim! So if you are in need of a last minute costume for young or old, give this one a shot! If you dress like Mordechai you can only win!
Wishing all my readers around the world a very joyful Purim!
