100th Day of Pre-K

Isla has been so excited for the 100th day of school party. They threw a bit of a curve ball at as at the last minute by asking the kiddos to dress up like 100 year olds. You all know that Isla takes her look very seriously. She wasn’t into sacrificing a day of Isla-fashion to the cause so I had to get super creative to get her to participate. How you ask? First, I told her she could have silver hair. She didn’t care about having silver (in fact she told me to take it off 5 times before school started) but I know she loves making “experiments” in the bath and told her the silver soapy bubbles would be awesome for such an experiment. That piqued her interest- then it was on to step 2. I’m not sure why, but she is super into wearing clothes to bed and pj’s to school (remember the PJ day suggestion post?). I told her old ladies liked to wear pj’s a lot (not sure if this is true and/or offensive) and that she could “sneak” in a pj day if we got her old lady pj’s. Better yet- that meant that we could buy her new pj’s and a robe! She was sold so $45 later we have 100 year old Isla. She wouldn’t do the glasses or wrinkles but I figured 3/5 of my ideas were good enough.

I have no idea why it was so important to me that she participated- that was a lot of work!! She did look adorable though.
