Thought I would share this costume idea that I have used a couple of times at my schools. It is super easy and inexpensive. It’s a rollercoaster. Well just one seat from the rollercoaster. We had great fun miming the ride going up hills, around corners and screaming all the way. Some of the kids just thought it was the best time to try it out.
