Here are ten teacher costume ideas for World Book Day that you might like to take inspiration from!
The Very Hungry Caterpillar
A classic children's story, loved by many generations - what's not to love?
Cat in the Hat
"I know it is wet and the sun is not sunny, but we can have lots of good fun that is funny. It's fun to have fun, but you've got to know how!"
Thing One and Thing Two (and three!)
You can't have the Cat in the Hat without his loyal sidekicks. There are no restrictions on how many 'Things you' can have, making this one super easy to recreate for a group of teachers.
Golden Ticket
Let's be honest, we all hoped we'd find one of these in a chocolate bar when we were kids. We absolutely love how creative and original this outfit idea is.
The Rainbow Fish
Here's your chance to become the most beautiful and iconic fish in the ocean - The Rainbow Fish. Just look at those shiny scales!
Red Riding Hood
Wolves, be gone!
101 Dalmations
Another great idea for a group costume. Who would you cast as your Cruella?
Paddington Bear
Paddington, aka the cutest little bear in the universe! Not to mention how cute the outfit is, and such an easy one to replicate too.
Mr Men and Little Misses
We absolutely love this idea, as each teacher could really bring out their personalities by choosing which Mr Man or Little Miss to dress up as. Mr Grumpy, you say? We know the feeling.
The Three Little Pigs
"I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in!"
