Tiger Costume

Time: 1 hour

Effort: Quick and easy - no sewing required

Materials:

  • Face paint
  • Tiger-print fabric
  • Black hooded sweatshirt and pants
  • Black tights.
  • Polyfil
  • Safety pins
  • Scissors
  • Hot glue gun

Instructions: Cut one leg off tights and stuff to make a tail. Attach to sweatpants with safety pins. Cut out round patches of the tiger-print fabric for the knees, elbows, and tail, and a large oval patch for the chest. Hot glue or sew the patches onto the black sweat suit and tail. Paint your child's whole face orange, then put some black stripes around the face. Cut triangle-shaped ears out of the tiger material and glue to the hood of the sweatshirt.
