Crazy Hat

It was Catholic School Week last week for the Moloko Munchkins. They were given the opportunity to celebrate in some unique ways and participate in some fun activities. I must say, the day in which they were permitted to wear a crazy hat, tie, and socks was a favorite!

The day prior, the all three munchkins came to me with the desire to have the "craziest" hat of all. I found three straw safari hats leftover from a previous birthday party and sent them on a mission to scrounge through their bedrooms and "special/junk" drawers. Little Dude B had a bit of a head start as he stayed home from school due to a slight fever. He quickly found some foam, shoe strings, straws and Nerf Darts. I helped him assemble his creation and I was impressed! Pretty wacky!

Big Sister came home from school, saw Little Dude B's and before I knew it, my kitchen table was covered with her stuffed Muppet collection. At the age of three, she went through a stage where she was crazy about "The Muppet Show." One afternoon, she and Hubby went on an errand and came home with a bunch o' Muppet's. Well, she decided to string several characters on her hat and the end result was fantastic! Love the tie too!


Poor Little Dude M! He was bummed and felt he had "lost his imagination." He was not sure how to top his siblings creations. So, I ventured upstairs and helped his sift through his treasures. I did not take long for us to come up with the simple design. With a little help of Hubby's engineering, I have to say his hat was definitely the most unique (and favored)!

Here is a photo of the Little Dudes proudly wearing their designs at school.

I am going to be shameless and brag. I was approached by many teachers, students, and parents saying the Moloko's knocked the "CRAZY HATS" requirement out of the ballpark. I must agree! Although, there were some other noteworthy hats, I am most certain these were by far the coolest!
