  1. easy, give her your clothes.


  2. shop at the thrift for old items,get her a grey wig ,some old socking, a dress , some thick glasses, some walking shoes , a purse and a cane

  3. Someone who's been around for 100 years would be so magical she may not even look old!

    She may be someone from history

    Or a fortune teller

    or even a fairy godmother - they're old, look young and kids love putting on wings

  4. Go to your local thrift store, they'll have all the antique out of style clothes an old woman would wear (and smell like it to) cheap.

  5. Mist her hair with water and hairspray then add baby powder, it will give a grey appearance.  If it is long enough make a bun.

  6. a gray wig. big glasses, old clothes hope it helps

  7. use talcum powder in her hair to make it look grey.

    Use an eyebrow pencil and draw jagged lines up from her upper lip (short ones) and from the corners of her mouth outward.  Pat some talcum powder on her face, and with the glasses, a hat, cane and period dress and bonnet she should look mah-velous!!

  8. Buy a white haired wig, use a stick for a cane, throw one of Grandmas old dresses on the child (cut it off of course) and you're on your way (have fun)

  9. big glasses

    a sweater

    perfume

    and dentures

  10. Is this education these days? Back in my day, we read from the scripts and if we weren't following along we would get whipped. Of course, this was 67 years ago.

  11. The clothes are one thing, you can find that stuff easily, and I think some folks have already supplied you with good suggestions.

    The hard part is the posture and the walk.

    The posture is crimped, your daughter can have you apply some duct tape to her back in  such a way that forces her to scrunch a bit. Yes, it is uncomfortable, that's the point. It will require her to stand in a way that is not normal for a young person.

    The walk can be achieved by putting tiny stones in her shoes. It will force your daughter to walk in tiny, mincy steps.

    Just like a 100 year old lady.

    If your daughter doesn't want to wear gloves, apply elmers glue to the back of her hands and let it dry. It will crinkle up and look like old skin. You can do the same to her face, but that is pretty uncomfortable.

    Try out any of the above suggestions on yourself first and make sure your daughter can handle the discomfort foctor.

  12. moomoo or big flowered dress

    grey wig

    cane

    hankie

    shawl

    stick-pin

    slippers

    plastic necklas

  13. Yes, as a matter of fact. dress her up in a costume from the 1907 era.

    Give her a hump and a cane and a wart on her nose.  

    What kind of sadistic teacher does your kid have?

  14. layer skirts to make her look chubbier.  find some empty wire-fram glasses (or punch the lenses out of cheap sunglasses), and have her wear sweater sets.  Pastels are also good, and many party stores will have wigs that should be appropriate for the occassion.

    Good luck

  15. wear a old women night gown also maybe glases if not have them yet maybe a wig

    hope i helped
