Fairy tale Ball

Jack's school had their annual fairy tale ball. All the kindergartners dress up like fairy tale characters and parade around the school. All the grades come out of their classes to watch them parade around. Then they have a castle bouce house, cupcakes, activity stations, etc. It's a big event. Jack HATED dressing up. All the kids started sword fighting and his was the only home made sword.... our of cardboard... and it kept "flopping over". He kept saying, "please... let me take this off! My sword keeps FLOPPING OVER!" I let him know that I'm sorry, but this is the activity for today and he needed to participate. I think he had fun, but he apparently doesn't like to play dress up! :)
