Big Ears on a Headband

A pair of oversized, realistic-looking ears fixed to a plain black headband. It is one of those props that gets a laugh on its own, with no costume needed.

What's in the pack

• 1 x black headband with two oversized ears attached

Sizing & fit

One size on a sturdy headband that fits both adults and children. The band has enough spring to sit securely on most heads; push it back behind the ears so the weight of the props does not tip it forward.

Styling it

It works best with an otherwise straight outfit, a shirt and tie say, because the contrast is the joke. Slide the band under a fringe to hide it and let the ears do the work.

Care

Sponge the ears with a barely damp cloth and let them air dry. Do not soak them or machine wash. Store the headband on its side rather than under anything heavy so the ears keep their shape.

Safety: Not for children under three, as any small part that works loose is a choking hazard. Check the band is not pinching on a child before a long wear, and keep it away from open flames.
