Book Week 2019 is almost upon us and yes, that means organising a costume for your child/children.
Running from August 17-23, it’s time to get a Book Week 2019 costume sorted because you’ll need to allow enough time for glue to dry and highly flammable children’s costumes to arrive in the post.
The perfect Book Week costume has to be a few things: not a dud, age appropriate, obvious enough people will recognise it and not too much of a time suck. Oh, and it’d be great if it didn’t cost more than a family day at the movies.
Side note – if you need a laugh to get you through Book Week prep, here’s a video of things mums never, ever say. Post continues after video.
Thankfully, this year’s theme is on your side. The Book Week 2019 theme is: Reading is My Secret Power. This is truly excellent news for you because… superhero costumes.
If you’re time-strapped and would rather be doing anything else than protecting your child’s social standing by ensuring their Book Week costume is not lame, we’ve sorted 19 Book Week costume ideas to suit the 2019 theme.
