Halloween costume - the Neighborhood Trolley

Halloween is an excellent opportunity for making things. When my pre-schooler asked if we could make a costume for the Neighborhood Trolley (from Daniel Tiger's neighborhood), how could I say no?

We started with a cardboard box. Mom cut out the window and printed out characters from Daniel Tiger's Neighborhood (from pbskids.org). 



 She colored the characters and taped them in the windows.



We added some paper and some extra cardboard behind the characters for support.

 Finally, we used LittleBits to make a working headlight.



Now we just need to put the wheels back on and we'll be ready to roll around the neighborhood.
