PRODUCT DETAILS
Picture your child bouncing into the classroom on Book Week morning transformed into a bright green praying mantis - complete with sculpted 3D eyes, bendable wire antennae, and textured wings down the back. This Kids Praying Mantis Costume is a full-length hooded jumpsuit in soft lime-green fabric with embossed wing panels and side drapes that create that iconic mantis silhouette.
What's in the Box
- Hooded jumpsuit with dimensional mantis head featuring large sculpted eyes and bendable wire antennae
- Embossed wing panels on back with leaf-vein texture
- Side tail/wing drapes extending from hips
- Integrated mitts at sleeve ends
Perfect for Book Week insect themes, school science presentations, garden party dress-ups, or any nature-themed classroom event. Pairs beautifully with bug-themed storybooks for Book Week - think creepy-crawly adventures, backyard safaris, or any tale celebrating the insect world. Great for kindy kids doing their first insect project or Year 3s reading chapter books about minibeasts.
Parent FAQs
What size should I order?
The jumpsuit runs true to size through the body. If your child is between sizes or on the taller side, we'd suggest sizing up - the length can be tricky if they've had a growth spurt. The hood is roomy and works over most hairstyles.
Can they wear this over regular clothes?
Yes - it's designed to go on over a t-shirt and leggings or trackies, which is handy if the classroom or playground is cold. The back zipper makes it easy to get on and off without a battle.
Care: Spot clean or gentle cold hand wash. Hang to dry - keep away from heat to protect the dimensional hood elements and wire antennae.
