The Pia’s Pet Club dressing-up ideas support the 2026 World Book Day £1/€1.50 book Pia’s Pet Club: Iguana Escape. Children can design their own club badge and dress as Pia or Hari using simple materials, with no printer required.
Why it works
These dressing-up ideas encourage creativity, confidence, and imaginative play. Additionally, children can explore the world of Pia’s Pet Club, enjoy the story, and take part in World Book Day celebrations in a fun, low-cost way. Because the activity works with everyday items, everyone can get involved.
How to use it
Children can start by designing their own Pia’s Pet Club badge. They can use the printable template or create one from scratch with paper, pens, and craft materials. Next, they can try drawing an iguana using the simple step-by-step guide and add it to their badge or costume. To dress up as Pia or Hari, children can use clothes they already have at home such as shorts, T-shirts, bright colours, or accessories inspired by the characters.
Get started
Print or draw the badge template, decorate it, and attach it to clothing with tape or a safety pin. Next, children can then add their iguana drawing and complete their outfit using items from home to bring the Pia’s Pet Club dressing-up ideas to life. This activity works at home, in school, or in community settings.
