Scramble Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Well...what did you want to be when you grew up? an astronaut? a nurse? a ballerina? Sorry, I have no idea, I never knew and I still don't know what I want to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 A fireman, a nurse, something you can do easily. Or something funny that a child would say, I know someone that went as a crayola crayon! - Complete blue clothes, blue face paint and a pointy hat, with crayola written on the t-shirt in permanent marker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

majorbloodnock Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I have an enduring memory of part of an advert from many years ago (can't remember what was being advertised, so the rest of it can't have been much good) where a young lad was portrayed as wanting to be a slug. That's the thought your theme has conjured up, and until I can get past it, I'm afraid all my suggestions will be useless. Unless you want to be a slug....

Redwing Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I think that the Crayola idea is fab, its a bit Ralph Wiggum (no offence Chris ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisP Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Hahaha. So how would one go about being a crayola?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Just found the pictures on facebook, 3 people went as different coloured crayola's. Yellow shorts, yellow vest top thing, cover everything else in face paint, and make a tip with a big peice of card rolled into a cone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 oh you could think bigger though - nurse, policeman already mentioned. Glamour model, film star? (sunglasses, lots of slap, trailing scarves) astronaut? I guess almost any occupation, you just need a hat and a few accessories. Personally I always wanted to be a librarian when I grew up, because firstly I thought I'd be able to read all the books I wanted and secondly I loved that big springy stamp thing they used to stamp the library tickets with!

PurpleTree Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Yes, must see pics. It's a fab idea one to bear in mind for future dressing up parties. So far when I ask Danny what he wants to be when he grows up, he either wants to be Batman, a Power Ranger or a Jedi Knight. For a while he wanted to be a binman, or a roadsweeper driver.
