One of the favorite times of year for kids is Halloween and Sam is no exception. Once the festivities are done he is already thinking of what he wants to be next year.
A few months ago he finally made the decision that he wanted to be a hydra. Let the brainstorming begin.
I figured I'd make him the center dragon to provide the body and tail. Now all I had to do was figure out how to make all the other dragon heads. I was thinking of 3D forms like paper mache or fabric but finally came up with a more 2D version. Sam was pleased so it was a go.
I think the costume was a success. Sam was happy with it and he even won 2nd place at the party he went to and one of the houses gave him their best costume prize for the neighborhood. What's not to like about a science kit and a 1lb block of chocolate?
