What age group is this costume for?
Elementary School
Middle School
High School & Beyond

Estimated time required to make this costume:
20 minutes

Difficulty level:
Quick and easy - no sewing required

Items you will need: (Hit your return key to start a new line)
white sweatpants and top, washable felt-tip pens (sewing pens work well), string, and large safety pins

Instructions:
Attach 3-4 pens to string approx. 6 inches long. Safety pin the strings, with the pens attached, to the top of the shirt, so that they dangle down the front of the shirt.

Other information to consider:
Write several notes on the clothes, like "Dad, call Mom when you get home" or "Ryan has practice at 5:30." Kids really enjoy adding to the notepad! Use sewing pens so that the writing washes out easily and you still have a good pair of sweats to wear after Halloween!
