My daughter's school graduation is May 18th and theme is Children Around the World........?


they want us to dress the children multiculturally (you know what ever you heritage is) well, we are italian, irish and german, any ideas on an outfit for my daughter? They just told us that this week. The only thing we can come up with is the german bar girl, but that really isn't appropriate for a 5 year old. HELP....and no dumb answers please or I will report you...thanks!

Answers:
Tricky. I would put her in a simple nice dress, and get pins of each flag to pin on her collar. Or, iron-on flags ironed onto an accessory like a purse or a hat (so the dress can be worn again). Because it's a graduation, you want her to look pretty for the pictures and such. Multicultural themed events for children are difficult these days - unless they can wear something specific like a sari or kilt - which is not applicable in your case. If it's a pot-luck you can bring a sampling of each country's food and share the culture that way. Or you can have your daughter say something in each language...

Other Answers:
Go to Goodwill thrift store and look for ideas.

Mexican or asian should be easy to find stuff for.

I though this was cute if you go for an Italian theme.

I would go with the strongest heritage, say for example, that she is mostly italian, you could dress her in venetian masquerade gowns, or renaissance music dress.

Good Luck I don't know if this will help but its the only thing I can think of. Get all the flags and sew her a shirt or maybe a dress. BUT....gdreyfus76 has the best idea.
