Making Costumes

It has become a tradition at Summers Knoll for children to make their own costumes out of recycled materials for Halloween at school. For some families this sounds like a daunting task but it really doesn't need to be. Just take a cardboard box, a paper bag, a toilet paper roll, or a black garbage bag, mix it with a little imagination, and voilà..in no time you have created a masterpiece. 

I have included some costumes from previous years as inspiration.
