Fancy themes

m fancy dress

The tongue-tied fairy wasnt so tongue-tied after all. She spoke her line well, in fact she repeated it 3-4 times because the mic wasnt lowered to her height. The anchor goaded her to say more but I had taught her only one line as I wasnt sure if she could handle more in a language she is just getting familiar with. Anyway she wasnt there to compete but just to participate, on her class teacher's advice.

I hired a pair of wings and made a wand, with V doing the final touches. Ash's former class teacher loved the frock. There were other fairies and angels and princesses including Cindrella, Snow white and Princess Diana. Some patriotically donned the attire of freedom fighters, Thiruvalluvar, Mother India, Mother Teresas, an Indian rocket and so on. There were an array of vegetables and fruits, some Biblical characters, a Barbie doll getting out of her box to the tune of the Aqua number, a Noddy, a Zorro, a mobile phone etc. Some of the kids performed really well, some did reasonably well, and some didnt utter a word and a couple of them developed decided not to appear in the last minute.

One prize winner was a Chotta Bheem, a popular Indian cartoon character on Pogo TV. I didnt get to see which of Mira's peers one a prize since we were trying to get out of the hall with a sweaty and tired Mira in tow. She and all other participants were given a set of Chinese pencils with fancy erasers.

The competition for the senior KG was still on when we left. Nine of Ash's classmates were taking part, and his teacher had taken him to meet them earlier during the show. Ash, who had expressed a desire to take part while we did a dress rehearsal for Mira yesterday night, was asked to take part next year.
