Review: Great costume - Fit well on my 3 year old. The hat may be a little tight on some children as it fit just perfectly on her and she has a small head/face. Material was good. Costume was a hit with the kids
Review: Great costume for book day - The costume was exactly as you’d expect from the listing and my 3 yo absolutely loved it and wore it all day for book day. I ordered the usual size clothes that she wears and it fit perfectly. The Velcro closures are easy for little ones to manage and she had no issues taking the hat on and off when she wanted to. The only slight negative is that the legs point backwards rather than out, so tricky to get them to show up in photos, but my little one couldn’t love it any more.

- Featuring a tabard with caterpillar design and has caterpillar feet on the side and also includes a red hat with a caterpillar antenna.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What size would you suggest for a 4 year old?  Is it small fitting?**
A: I got the 6-8 for my 5 year old......as it gives him more room for growth. I would say the fitting is accurate.
