Baked Potato Costume

Follow these simple instructions to make a Baked Potato costume for Halloween.

Baked Potato Costume

Time: 30 minutes

Effort: Quick and easy — no sewing required

Materials:

  • Brown paper bag (large enough to cover your child's torso)
  • Yellow construction paper
  • Scissors
  • Black permanent marker
  • Tape or staples

Instructions: Turn the bag inside out, so that only the brown side shows. Cut one hole in front for the face, and holes on either side for the arms.

Write "I'm a baked potato" on the front of the bag.

Write "butter" on the yellow construction paper and then tape or staple it to the top of the bag so that it sticks up.
