This is the headdress that she wore for Halloween. It's from the carnival museum in Mobile, Alabama.
Now that Halloween is over, the girls can use the headdress and mask for play. They enjoy dressing up, pretending, and creating their own stories/plays. Am interested in seeing how they use the headdress in play.
They could spend hours each day playing - creating stories with rather involved plots and characters. Having a variety of costumes, fabric, and miscellaneous items (open-ended toys, essentially) gives them a wider range in their play. They are not limited by what the costume or item dictates.
I continue to be fascinated with how they transform everyday items into their stories and play.
