You’ll need: A long white/cream woolly jumper, some white/cream tights or leggings, black gloves, black socks, black plimsolls, cotton buds, glue, white card, small amount of elastic.

That said, as a teacher – and now as a parent – I’ve had to take some deep breaths and get stuck in, especially around the time of year when Nativity plays are being organised. And for those who don’t know where to start, check out our Halloween costume ideas for kids to get your munchkins ready for the celebration in a snap.Pick out wigs, shoes and complete outfit sets to dress them as their favourite princess from top to toe. TheSchoolRun offers parents thousands of printable and interactive worksheets, covering every aspect of the primary curriculum. But don't worry; we've got loads of easy no-sew Nativity costumes you can make at home on a budget, whichever part your child is playing. Have the jumper or tights/leggings as woolly as possible – you can stick on cotton buds with glue to make more fluffy.

You’ll need: A long brown woolly jumper, some brown tights or leggings, brown felt, glue, black gloves, black socks, black plimsolls, brown card, pipe cleaners and a headband. While my ideal self is icing cupcakes for the school fair ‘til dawn and sewing quilts for the kids during downtime, quite frankly this recent obsession with all things craft just isn’t me. If you're lucky, the school will take care of all the costumes but - more often than not - you'll receive a letter home telling you what part your child has been chosen to play and asking you to bring in a costume. It's a proud moment for any parent and you'll no doubt be excited to see your little one up there on the stage. Some of our princess dresses also come with a matching tiara to give them a realistic feel of being a princess.

And if your angel or fairy requires some wings, try our fab homemade wings made out of paper plates here. You simply need to make a plain or stripy tunic and tie it around your child's waist with a length of rope or a leather belt.

Fold your fabric in half and measure it to check it's the right length and size to fit your child comfortably. If you don't have a suitable tea towel, you can try using a pashmina which can be wrapped around your child's head, turban-style. For the complete look, follow our step-by-step picture guide to making an Angel Nativity costume here. Pick out Hogwarts uniforms and whether they go for Gryffindor or Slytherin, our costume sets come complete with wands and other accessories to make it truly magical. Punch holes into two of the star points on each card, and tie ribbon from one star to the other, making a sandwich board effect.You can do this with a sewing machine if you have one, but for a no-sew option use something like Wonderweb hemming tape. For a Mary costume, you can make the tabard listed above – just use some blue material or a large blue pillowcase which can be slit at the bottom and sides to make a simple tunic.

All you need is a long rectangle of fabric to fashion into a tunic, or you can even cheat and adapt an old pillowcase for little ones! However, amongst all the excitement you've probably got the stress of making their Nativity play costume yourself.Don't forget to complete their ensemble with those all-important fancy dress accessories to put the final touches to their transformation. If you've got a little Joseph or a Shepherd, you'll be pleased to know this is one of the easier costumes to rustle up! If you're still looking for some Christmas inspiration, check out our articles below or exchange ideas with parents in the Forum. For this, cut out a star shape and paint it with glitter paint, then fasten it onto a stick (like a garden cane cut short). For most Nativity costumes, you can get away with a tabard or a tunic to make up the base of the outfit.
