Expose your son to his early roots and learn the value of hard work with the Kids Colonial Boys Costume. It features a vest with attached cream sleeves and frilly cuffs. Also included are an authentic recreation of colonial style knee length pants, a cream colored and frilly jabot, and a broad-brimmed hat. In the colonial period, children worked as hard as their parents tending the field, feeding the livestock, and making their own candles. At a certain age, boys went out to become apprentices of a craftsman and learn a trade which could help them set up a business one day. Colonials were industrious people and your son will learn a great deal about the struggles of the past. For Halloween, school productions, or commemorative events, this costume has a lot of character steeped in history.
