Hi Shelly Cordsen here with Expert Village and I have our model here this is my grandson Treven. He?s almost 4 years old and he?s in our Christmas play. We have put the shepherds costume on him and you'll see we come around to the garments we tied them around in the back. He's a little tall, most other toddlers this would go all the way to the floor. But he's my only available model today. Now we made our head dress and this is how it goes on and you'll come to the front. Take the straps and tie them in the back. And he's ready to go and herd his sheep. Now one of the ideas for a shepherd staff that we did is at Christmas time you can always find the red and the white candy canes there are plastic they go in the ground you'll see them in your, they lay on your front porch step. And they stand about this high and all we took was those candy canes and wrapped them with brown duck tape and that?s what each of our shepherds got to carry in the play. And again this is the angel and we?ve added wings. So there's a lot you can do with this kind of costume you can decorate them as bumble bees or anything you want and even use them as Halloween costumes.
