PRODUCT DETAILS
What's in the Box
- Grey curly perm wig with elastic cap
- Pearl bead necklace
- Glasses with integrated black eye mask
- Printed loot bag with ribbon closure
This Kids Gangsta Granny Costume Kit transforms your child into the mischievous jewel-thief granny from David Walliams' beloved chapter book in under five minutes. The grey perm wig sits over their own hair with an elastic cap, the pearl necklace adds elderly elegance, and the round glasses (with a secret eye mask built underneath) complete the heist-ready look.
The loot bag is the standout prop—printed with diamonds and "GANGSTA GRANNY" text, it's perfect for stashing pretend jewels (or lunchbox snacks). Pair with your child's own black clothing—leggings, trackies, or a dark jumper—and they're ready to go. The wig's curly synthetic fibres hold their shape all day, no styling needed.
Perfect For
Book Week & World Book Day: A guaranteed crowd-pleaser for David Walliams fans, literary character parades, or any school dress-up day celebrating favourite books.
100 Days of School: The classic "dress as a 100-year-old" costume sorted—add a walking stick from home and your kid's nailed the brief.
Birthday Parties & Casual Dress-Up: Perfect for Roald Dahl-themed parties, author-celebration events, or any time they want to be the cheeky granny from the story.
How to Wear It
Slip the wig over their hair, fasten the pearl necklace at the back, and pop the glasses on. The eye mask sits under the glasses frames for that jewel-thief disguise. Pair with black clothes they already own—no need to buy extra pieces.
Parent FAQs
Will the wig fit my child's head?
The wig has an elastic cap that stretches to fit most kids aged 5–12. If your child has very thick or long hair, tie it back first so the wig sits flat.
Can they wear this over regular clothes?
Yes—that's the whole idea. The kit is just accessories, so they wear their own black top and bottoms underneath. Makes it easy for classroom wear or quick changes at school.
Are the glasses and mask separate pieces?
No, the eye mask is built into the glasses frame—they wear both at the same time. It's a clever design feature that mirrors the book's illustrations.
Is this suitable for Book Week if they haven't read the book yet?
Absolutely. Gangsta Granny is a wildly popular David Walliams title in Australian schools, and teachers recognise the character instantly. If they haven't read it, Book Week is the perfect excuse to borrow it from the library.
Care: Wipe the wig with a damp cloth if needed; store flat to keep curls intact.
