Approach:
- Prepare the small plastic baskets ahead of time with the clothing images

- Explain that the activity is to “Help {Child’s Name} Get Dressed”
- Have the children glue images onto the body outline
- Encourage the children to use markers to make the face and include any other additional uniqueness
We had tons of fun mixing and matching outfits. I wish I had an image of the leopard print outfit my 3 year old came up with for his “girl”. Smiles all around!
