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

Estimated time required to make this costume:
Not Long

Difficulty level:
Quick and easy - no sewing required

Items you will need: (Hit your return key to start a new line)
A Large cardboard box (Like a television box) Determine size of box based on size of your child.

White spray paint

Black paint

Black Leotard (long sleeved preferred)

Black Tights

Black shoes (or ballet slippers)

Black Swim cap (You can find at any sporting good store for 2 or 3 dollars)

Instructions:
1. Cut all the flaps off so that the box is open at one end.

2. On the opposite end of the large opening, cut a hole large enough for child's head.

3. Cut one hole on the other two sides for child's arms.

4. Spray paint the box white

5. Paint dots on the sides of the box (like a dice would be)

6. Put on the tights, leotard,
shoes and swimming cap.

7. Put the box on over the clothes and you have a dice!

Other information to consider:
If you have never put on a swimming cap before, I would advise to put baby powder in the inside of the cap 1st to make it go on easier.
