PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- All In One with Character Hood
This Kids Gruffalo Mouse Costume turns your child into the clever little hero from Julia Donaldson's beloved picture book — the brave mouse who outsmarts the forest's scariest creatures. The tan plush jumpsuit has the story's signature phrase "Don't call me good!" printed on the white chest panel, so every teacher and parent will know exactly who they're meant to be.
Soft fleece body feels cosy for all-day wear, and the character hood sits snugly with its 3D pink ears and friendly mouse face. The attached tail bounces as they walk, white paw details finish the wrists and ankles, and elastic cuffs keep everything in place during playground adventures or story time presentations.
Perfect For
Book Week & World Book Day: A natural pick for any Julia Donaldson story parade, Gruffalo-themed classroom activities, or school literacy day dress-up.
School Story Time Events: Ideal for kindy character parades, library story sessions, or end-of-term book character celebrations where kids bring their favourite stories to life.
Birthday Parties & Play: Perfect for Gruffalo-themed birthday parties, casual dress-up days at home, or any occasion where your little one wants to be the smartest mouse in the forest.
How to Wear It
Pair with comfortable white sneakers or white socks (footwear not included) and you're ready to go. The all-in-one design means no fussing with separate pieces — just zip in and head out the door.
Parent FAQs
What size should I order?
Check the size chart for chest and height measurements. The plush fabric has a bit of stretch, so if your child is between sizes we'd say go with their usual clothing size rather than sizing up — the elastic cuffs will adjust.
Can they wear this over regular clothes?
Yes, the jumpsuit fits over a long-sleeved top and leggings if the classroom is cold. The fleece is warm enough on its own for indoor events, though.
How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?
Hand wash cold or gentle machine cycle, lay flat to dry. The plush holds up well to wear — the hood and tail are securely attached, and the chest print is designed to last through multiple Book Weeks.
Will other kids recognise this character?
Absolutely. The Gruffalo is a classroom staple in Australian schools, and the "Don't call me good!" phrase is instantly recognisable to any child who's heard the story. Teachers love seeing this one walk through the door.
Care: Hand wash cold, lay flat to dry. No bleach.
