Dancing Cow costume
My daughter participated in “The Glass Slipper”, a ballet based on the story of Cinderella. During one part of the play she and a fellow dancer performed a “magical” dance, which turned straw into gold.
Together my daughter and I helped out by creating the costume. We started by making a paper Mache covered balloon. This we attached to a bicycle helmet. I carved a nose from Styrofoam. We attached the fabric and eyes using hot glue.
The cow was a great success. The dance instructor even invited my daughter to perform at an outside dance and sing fest.
