    Harry Potter. You can buy/make a cape, get some cheap fake glasses and wand. And of course draw a scar on his forehead. Easy peasy.

    James from James and The Giant Peach - pretty standard clothing.

    Old pants and shirt with a couple of holes/patch work spots and some straw out the bottom of the pants = scarecrow from Wizard of Oz

    A bear - all brown/dark clothing and some ears and a brown face = Goldilocks and the Three Bears

    light clothes and the egg cup from a carton of eggs painted pink with two black nostrils - use elastic to fasten around face. A curly tail from some pipe cleaners... and you have yourself a pig from The Three Little Pigs

    Some boots, jeans, and a pirate style shirt (read button up shirt usually white), pretend sword, long tail (think old pantyhose stuffed with newspaper and painted black or orange) = Puss in Boots

    Sorry, that's all I've got right now...

    Harry Potter would be pretty easy but i'm guessing every kid would be dressed as him.

    I like the Where's Wally idea.

    Charlie from Charlie and the chocolate factory would be easy too, just put him some old clothes too small for him lol
