I love watching my children come up with stories and watch them bring it to life. From an early age, fostering opportunities for children to use their imagination is so important. It can be as a simple as pretending an empty box is a race car, building a city out of blocks or pretending we are knights protecting our castle home.

Great Pretenders offers an incredible variety of imaginative play costumes that encourage children to enter into a world of curiosity and wonder. They have multiple options for boys and girls. Kinsley loves princesses so she was beyond excited to dress up as one of her favourite princesses, Cinderella. The gloves and crown accessories brought a huge smile to her face. She wore the dress all day long spinning and twirling around and even ate her meals asking us to address her as Cinderella.

Each dress up costume has creative details and made with excellent quality and durability. The doctors outfit comes complete with accessories for your children to create their own hospital scene. Jake loved the superhero costume and it was reversible so he could pretend he was Batman saving the world and switch to Spiderman in his next scene.

Great Pretenders is a Canadian brand and they offer an incredible selection of costumes, accessories and jewelry for children. Every time we visit our local Indigo, Kinsley spends her time spinning the Great Pretenders jewelry wheel showing me every single colourful necklace and bracelet.
