- A lab coat or a white shirt to wear under the dress or top
- A bunch of science-themed accessories such as a microscope, a beaker, or a globe
How to Make the Costume
- Create Ms. Frizzle’s hairstyle:
- If you already have long curly red hair, that’s great! You can style it with lots of volume and hairspray to replicate Ms. Frizzle’s look.
- If you don’t have red hair, you can purchase a curly wig online or from a costume store. Alternatively, you can curl your hair using a curling iron or rollers and spray it with red hairspray for a festive touch.
- Choose a purple outfit:
- Ms. Frizzle is known for her eclectic taste in fashion, so don’t be afraid to mix and match different patterns and styles. You can find a purple dress with various patterns (such as planets, stars, or atoms) or a purple top with a quirky skirt.
- Add some unique accessories to complete the look:
- A pair of black or red shoes can work with any purple outfit.
- To replicate Ms. Frizzle’s tights, you can buy a pair of opaque tights in red or orange color. These will add a pop of color and make for a fun, creative touch.
- A lizard or dinosaur stuffed animal can be easily found online or in stores. This represents Ms. Frizzle’s pet, Liz, who the character often carries around on adventures.
- You can also add a lab coat or white shirt to wear under the dress or top to make the costume more authentic.
- Finally, add a bunch of science-themed accessories to complete the look. These can include a microscope, a beaker, or a globe.
- Now that you have all the materials, the next step is to put them all together. Dress up your child in the outfit and add all the accessories. Make sure you take a few photos of the whole costume to capture the transformation.
