Ulog #11 Love is spending DAYS on your child's costume to be worn for a total of 45 minutes

You might have previously read about my frustration from my previous Ulog here - where I started making a costume for my daughter for Book Week before finding our my daughter's school is ONLY school that doesn't do book week activities!

I have some good news, because a few weeks later I found out the school will be doing a big Science expo and everyone will present a model of some sort and can be in costume.

Well, count me in! 🙋

I was particularly happy that my previous Ms Frizzle idea from The Magic School Bus can still apply for the science expo because Ms Frizzle is a science teacher! 💡

I'm so very pleased to show you my Ms Frizzle outfit, but no longer a space theme but a coral reef theme:

My DD's chosen sea creature is the Killer Whale so here's the back:

Here's her 3D model:

And look at the school hall!

The one gripe I have about this is the evolution of Ms Frizzle in the media. Here's a pic of Ms Frizzle if you're not familiar:

Ms Frizzle is supposed to be this flamboyant, hands-on Science teacher who wears outfits based on whatever the children are learning, I was very excited and then disappointed that Netflix remade The Magic School Bus series, and now Ms Frizzle's sister who is taking over look like this:

Lovely but not the flamboyant science teacher I grew up reading! And EW, where I got this picture from, agrees!.

What do you think?
