Funky Pharaoh
Make history in your family with this instant classic -- no sewing necessary! Just cut a few yards of inexpensive white cotton into a royal robe. A bamboo pole, found at a garden center and wrapped with a fake snake, serves well as the pharaoh's staff.
For another historical no-sew costume, check out this Greek Statue. MATERIALS:
Blue craft foam (one 12- by 18-inch sheet)
Stapler
16 inches of wide gold wired ribbon
Fabric glue (we used Fabri-Tac)
Plastic jewels
1 yard of gold lamé fabric
2 yards of white cotton fabric
6 yards of trim (we used ribbons, some with gold coins attached)
Time needed: Afternoon or Evening
1. THE HEADBAND Cut two 3-inch-wide strips lengthwise from the blue craft foam. Staple them together at one end, then fit it around your child's head so it overlaps a bit, staple the band closed, and trim the excess. To make the snake, knot the wired ribbon at each end. Glue on jewel eyes and a craft foam or paper tongue. Staple it to the band.
2. THE COLLAR AND HEADDRESS For the collar, draw an oval neckhole inside a 20-inch circle on the gold lamé. To keep the fabric from fraying, spread glue over the lines, then let it dry before cutting it. Glue on some jewels.
3. Use the same gluing technique to cut a 20-inch circle for the headdress. Staple it inside the front center of the headband so that it drapes over the top of your child's head
4. THE ROBE Fold the white fabric in half, then cut the neckhole and glue on the trim. For the sash, cut a rectangle out of the gold lamé and glue trim along one end. Slip it over a belt made from the remaining ribbon.
This fun and easy to do: go to Family Fun.com you have so many to choose from, but this is my favorite and it's easy

put on a boa, a sparkly dress, some sparkly shoes, and a bright coloured head band or if you want something like pigtails take sparkly or bright coloured pigtails or a bow for your hair.

I think it is very healthy to just be the other gender for one day.
