Dress up

I recently started a "Tickle Trunk" for my kids. I have been collecting lots of old material from my mom and some old clothes as well. I also check out the local thrift stores for some great finds as well as Dollarama, I must admit it is easier to make dress up clothes for girls than for boys. to make a skirt with an elastic is simple. But I have tried to put more things in there that would attract the boys. Like hats ,super hero capes,vests and ties. The other day a friend was down with her 2 girls, so add that to my 2 and you have 3 girls and 1 boy, I guess our "1" was out numbered by the "3" and the following picture was the end result. At least he has one of the Hats on and has a car in his hand.
