Firetruck to the Rescue Costume

My 3 year-old son wanted to be a firetruck. I had already made his twin brother a school bus costume from cardboard boxes and paint, so I thought, how hard could it be? Well, I ended up taking it with me to the school I sub at to finish it up the day of the town pumpkin walk so he could wear it. The third graders all wanted to wear it so I knew my son would enjoy it. Made working "headlights" and emergency lights to make it easier for us to see in the dark. Put it to the test that night, and sure enough we met a few firefighters out on the dark wooded pumpkin trail who couldn't get enough of it. And yes we were able to see! Then he had his picture taken with a volunteer firefighter at the town hall when we went trick or treating there. Enjoyed not only by my son, but also the professional firefighters we were honored to meet!
