: Today we rocked out a bit and learned about Charlemagne. Ask your child who he was. RENAISSANCE/FANTASY FAIRE APRIL 7, 2011. Students were shown a few simple costume ideas today. Please don't spend a lot of money for costumes. We're covering the Middle Ages through the Renaissance. There were many, many different types of fashions. Most kids can easily dress up like a peasant or serf. They may also add a little gypsy, pirate, Robin Hood, Shakespeare, and fantasy elements to their costumes. I have made many costumes with towels, sheets, curtains, old fabric, table cloths, etc. A simple costume would be a hoodie, old towel cut with a place for a head, and some type of belt. Both boys and girls can wear this type of costume. Many girls have a peasant type of blouse. Match a blouse with a skirt, apron, hat, scarves, etc. and they're good to go. Boys can wear a T-shirt with the sleeves cut out, a turtle neck sweater, long shorts, and long socks or tights. These are ONLY suggestions.

We will need A LOT of parent help! If you would like to help with our Faire, contact Heather Carlson at 801-254-7543.
