Most little boys like cars. Because of this, a little boy might want to be the Interstate for Halloween. While this may seem like a difficult costume, it is actually very easy.
What you will need:
- Black or Gray sweat suit that has a sweat shirt with a hood
- Yellow electrical or masking tape
- 6, 8, or 10 small toy cars
- Print out of an Interstate sign (one that is local makes it a funnier costume)
- Velcro
- ScissorsHot glue gun and glue sticks, strong glue like GOOP or E6000
- Sneakers
Instructions:
Print out the Interstate sign, making sure it is sized smaller than the head of the costume wearer, but big enough to be seen.
Put the yellow tape up the middle of the front of each leg of the sweat suit. Line the shirt up with the pants and continue putting yellow tape up to the shoulders.
Glue the same amount of Velcro on the left and right side of each yellow line on the pants and shirt, making sure they are in various places as traffic might be seen.
Afterward, glue a piece of Velcro to the front of the hood for the Interstate sign.
Glue Velcro to the back of each toy car and to the back of the Interstate sign.
Velcro the Interstate sign to the hood.
Velcro each car to Velcro on the suit. Make it so the traffic on the right goes up the sweat suit and the traffic on the left goes down the sweat suit.
Have the costume wearer wear sneakers that match the costume.
