Book Week Costume Ideas for First Nations Books
Book Week Costume Ideas for First Nations Books is a free digital resource created to help teachers and students celebrate First Nations children’s books during Book Week in culturally appropriate and respectful ways.
This 6-page resource includes a selection of First Nations books, each with the front cover, a short book summary, a simple costume idea and suggestions for where to buy the book.
A helpful statement about cultural appropriation is also included, supporting teachers and students to choose costume ideas that honour the story without copying culture, changing skin colour, imitating cultural dress or relying on stereotypes.
Whether used by teachers, librarians, families or students, this resource offers respectful costume ideas that help make First Nations books more visible and celebrated during Book Week.
