joyful about book character day

To celebrate the birthday of Dr. Seuss, my son's school hosted a "Book Character" day. I would've LOVED to have rummaged up a costume of a character from his favorite book series, "Geronimo Stilton." Aside from putting together a 3 piece suit, I just didn't have it in me this week to put that together. Our little guy just *loves* monkeys, so I thought the "man in the yellow hat" was a good fit.

SERIOUSLY easy costume >> Yellow foam hat in summer crafts at Hobby Lobby, foam sheet for necktie (w/elastic) and a yellow tshirt, also from Hobby Lobby. And, because he loves ALL monkeys, we already had a Curious George. Happy Birthday, Dr. Seuss!
