Book Week 2026 Costume Ideas

📚✨ Book Week costume ideas!

I have always LOVED Book Week! 📚✨

But sadly, my kids (11 and 7) are just not as into dressing up as I was as a child. 😭 So, unfortunately, my dreams of living vicariously through them each Book Week are not quite working out!

BUT… if your kids love dressing up and they love Nonno and Nonna, they might like the idea of dressing up as the grandchildren from My Nonno Loves and My Nonna Loves! ❤️

Probably not quite as exciting as dressing up as a Minecraft character… but hey, I had to try! 😂

You might already have all these bits and pieces at home.. or you could pick them up at the places listed below for a few dollars.
