Ideas for 1950s Children Costumes
It is a well known fact that children love to dress up! So, even though they might not know anything about the 1950's, Mom and Dad sure do! Introduce your boys to Elvis with his white-capped jumpsuit or give your girls a poodle skirt, sweater, ankle socks and saddle shoes while you show them how to jitterbug! But don't stop there - get creative! Buy the boys some huge goggles and army fatigues to resemble Captain Video in the 1950s serials. Buck Rogers is another great idea easily pulled together with a space helmet , suit Girls love being starlets too! Consider creating a scrapbook especially for dress up times to remember these special moments! All you need is stickers, some die cuts, a good album, the pictures (of course), and a lot of imagination!
