Go by your painters store and ask if you can buy a painters hat for your
kids to decorate for school and they will probably just give it to you for
free. Give one hat to each child. Tell your child(ren) that it is
silly hat day on (pick a date) and they can decorate the hat any way they
want. Here are some examples:
Glue: dry beans, buttons, mini micro cars, hard candy, yarn, flowers,
fake bugs, pictures, etc. or use fabric paint and jewels or beads, etc and
just let them go and have fun.
