- Air raid warden hat with adjustable chin strap

This Kids Air Raid Warden Costume brings the WWII home front to life with a navy jumpsuit styled as a civil defense uniform, complete with warden armband and utility bag. It's a licensed Horrible Histories costume — instantly recognisable to fans of the books and TV series.
The jumpsuit has a tailored jacket-style top half with mock collar and cream shirt panel sewn in, so there's no fiddly layering. The WARDEN armband is stitched onto the right sleeve in cream and navy lettering, and a beige chest strap adds authentic wartime detail. Navy helmet-style hat and canvas bag complete the look — all ready to wear straight from the packet.
Perfect For
Book Week & History Projects: A standout pick for Horrible Histories fans at Book Week, WWII school projects, or 1940s-themed classroom days.
Educational Plays & Presentations: Great for nativity plays with a wartime setting, school assemblies about the home front, or living history days where kids explore civil defense roles.
Dress-Up at Home: Perfect for fans of the Horrible Histories series who want to step into the past, or for rainy-day dress-up with a historical twist.
How to Wear It
Pair with sturdy black shoes or boots and a torch prop for authentic air raid warden energy. The hat's chin strap adjusts to fit comfortably, and the bag's shoulder strap sits across the chest for hands-free warden duty.
Parent FAQs
What size should I order?
Check the size chart for chest and height measurements. The jumpsuit has elastic at the back waist for a bit of give, so if your child is between sizes we'd suggest sizing up for longer wear.
Can they wear this over regular clothes, or does it need layers underneath?
The jumpsuit is designed to be worn on its own — the mock shirt front is sewn in so there's no need for a separate white shirt underneath. Just pop it on over underwear or a thin t-shirt if the day's cold.
How do I wash this? Is the fabric durable?
Gentle cold machine wash, air dry flat. The cotton-blend fabric holds up well to school-day wear, and the navy hides minor marks nicely.
Is this suitable for school Book Week?
Absolutely — it's a licensed Horrible Histories costume, so teachers and kids will recognise it straight away. The historical theme ticks the "book character" box, and the all-in-one design makes morning dress-up stress-free.
Care: Cold gentle wash, air dry. Iron on low if needed.
