UPDATE:

SO, my neighbor had small bunny ears that I can dye, and I am looking for a feather duster tail... THANK YOU BJ, Suz, and Caltechgirl!

I got an email last night that I saw this morning - for the big end of the year thing at Happy Montessori, the kids in Bear's class are singing a song. Apparently, they can dress up as forest animals. Bear told me that he's going to be a fox.

The thing? Is tomorrow morning.

Anyone know where to find fox ears on the fly? (the children are not supposed to be wearing costumes, according to the note. Just regular clothes in appropriate colors, face paint, and ears or wings).

1 How bout a head band with some taped/glued on construction paper ears. get some brown/reddish construction paper and some white. You get the picture. As for the tail - maybe a brown/red feather duster. pinned to the pants.

2 Try Party City or Walmart if you're not feeling crafty. They usually have some costume bits all year long if you look in the right places. I love the fox tail feather duster idea!

3 Michaels or a similar craft store may work out as well. I once bought reindeer horns for my daughter's recital from Michaels.

4 This reminds me of the evening that 10 minutes after she had been sent to bed Her Ladyship popped her head 'round the door to say, "Oh, and Mom? I need to take pig ears and a nose to school tomorrow. For the play. Which we're doing at 2P. You can be there, right?" I manufactured something approximating pig ears and nose out of construction paper, thread, and a headband, and she looked great. Bear will, too.

6 I would have bought some felt triangles and attached it to a headband. How did it work out for you?

7 LMAO! And I thought 80 cupcakes by 8:00 a.m. was bad.
