PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- White tunic top with fiber-filled padded belly and red-yellow feather collar
- 3D chicken headpiece with yellow beak visor, googly eyes, and red felt comb
- Red and yellow striped pants with elastic waistband
- Oversized yellow felt chicken feet shoe covers
This Kids Chicken Costume turns your toddler into the star of the farmyard, with a fluffy white body, 3D googly-eyed hood, and oversized yellow chicken feet that shuffle along the floor. The fiber-filled belly gives that plump cartoon-hen shape kids love, and the red-and-yellow striped "drumstick" pants add a playful touch.
Built for comfort: the headpiece secures with velcro at the neck (no fiddly ties), the elastic-waist pants pull on in seconds, and the felt shoe covers slip over regular shoes. Soft plush body fabric feels cosy for indoor kindy events or chilly outdoor parades, and the attached wings under the sleeves stay put while your little one waddles and flaps.
Perfect For
Book Week & Farm Story Dress-Up: A natural fit for stories like Hattie and the Fox, Rosie's Walk, or any farmyard picture book — spot-on for toddler character parades and kindy storybook days.
Animal Dress-Up Days & Nursery Rhyme Events: Works for Little Red Hen performances, Old MacDonald sing-alongs, or any farm-themed classroom event where your toddler needs to cluck and strut.
Halloween & Costume Parties: Sweet alternative to spooky costumes — perfect for toddler trick-or-treating, harvest festivals, or backyard birthday parties with a farm animal theme.
How to Wear It
Slip the headpiece on first and secure the velcro at the neck, then pull the tunic over regular clothes. Pants go on over their own trousers if it's cold, or on their own for warmer days. Shoe covers slip over sneakers or bare feet — the felt grips well on indoor floors but can be slippery on polished surfaces, so save them for carpeted kindy halls.
Parent FAQs
Q: What size does my toddler need?
Check the size chart image for chest and height measurements. The elastic waist and velcro neck give you some flex, but if your child is between sizes we'd say size up — toddlers grow fast and the costume will last longer.
Q: Can they wear this over regular clothes, or is it warm enough on its own?
The plush body layer is cosy but not heavy — fine over a long-sleeve tee and leggings for indoor kindy events. For outdoor parades in cooler weather, layer a thermal underneath. The pants are thin cotton-blend, so underlayers help if it's chilly.
Q: How do I clean this? Is the felt durable for toddler rough-and-tumble?
Spot-clean the felt elements (collar, comb, feet) with a damp cloth. The body fabric can handle a gentle hand wash in cold water — air dry flat, don't tumble. The felt is sewn on securely, but toddlers are grabby so check the stitching before each wear.
Q: Will the headpiece stay on during a kindy parade or do I need to safety-pin it?
The velcro neck closure holds well for short events (20-30 minutes), but if your toddler is a headpiece-yanker you might want a parent nearby to readjust. No need for pins — the velcro is toddler-safe and quick to re-fasten.
Care: Spot clean felt elements; gentle hand wash body fabric in cold water, air dry flat.
