Make a traditional ghost
costume or be a mummy. Tear an old sheet into 2
inch-wide strips. Soak the strips in weak tea to
discolor them (for that old mummy look). Have "the
mummy-to-be" wear tight-fitting but warm white
clothing. Wrap the strips around the legs, arms,
etc. You can secure the fabric strips with masking
tape or safety pins (I would not do this costume on
a younger child). You could also try wrapping the
kid in toilet paper, but it won't last long! If you
have access to lots of gauze, use that instead.
