Picture this: your child zips into this full-body shark costume on Book Week morning — 3D hood with open-jawed teeth, dorsal fin down the back, pectoral fins extending from the sleeves. The kids lose it. Your little one is already the star of the classroom ocean parade. The jumpsuit is soft plush polyester with a white belly panel, bright blue sides, and zigzag trim that mimics a real shark's colouring. Centre-front zipper makes getting dressed a breeze, and the elastic cuffs at wrists and ankles keep everything in place whether they're swimming through the playground or sitting cross-legged for story time.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

The jumpsuit runs true to size through the torso and has elastic at the wrists and ankles for a snug fit. If your child is between sizes or prefers a looser fit (handy if they're wearing layers underneath for warmth), we'd suggest sizing up. The hood is roomy enough to accommodate most head sizes comfortably, and the mesh eyes provide good visibility.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes — the centre-front zipper opens wide enough to slip on over a t-shirt and leggings or tracksuit pants. Handy for classrooms that run cold or if you're heading straight from school drop-off to pick-up without a costume change. The soft plush fabric is forgiving and doesn't cling.

Care: Hand wash cold, hang to dry. Avoid tumble drying — the 3D fins and hood hold their shape best when air-dried flat.
