Get all dressed up and ready to read this World Book Day! We’ve got a crafty guide for a last-minute Birthday Thief costume, just using things from around the house – it’s an absolute steal!
First things first raid your home for all of the materials on our handy list. Download and print out the colourful numbers and sneaky bandana templates.
Grab some scissors and carefully cut around the dashed lines so you have a selection of colourful numbers ready for sticking. Don’t forget to cut out the middles.
Using the stickiest sticky tape you can find stick the colourful numbers to your red outfit and ta-da!
The transformation begins!
There’s just one more thing to do. Carefully cut out the sneaky bandana (don’t forget the eye holes). Using a pencil or pen press a hole through the circles marked and tie some elastic to each side with a strong knot.
