How Do I Make a Doctor’s Coat for Kids?
Doctor costumes are always popular for kids, and they’re not too difficult to make. The most important part of the costume is the doctor’s coat. To make a doctor’s coat for kids, you’ll need a white shirt, some fabric scissors, and some red felt. Then, cut a slit down the front of the shirt, from the neckline to the bottom hem. Next, cut two pieces of red felt in the shape of a cross, and stitch them onto the back of the shirt. Finally, put the shirt on your child and have them use fabric scissors to cut a “stethoscope” out of another piece of white felt. And that’s it! With just a few simple materials, you can easily make a doctor’s coat for kids.
