Where to find them for a 4 year old, 2 year old and 1 year old? I can't believe the prices here. Such a waste of money spending over $100 (for all 3 including accessories) for one night.

Where is that store AL KABAYAL exactly ? I'm not good with directions. If you know where Hamarain Centre is, Al Kabayel is opposite the centre. You get onto Maktoum Bridge and follow Abu Hail (green sign).. Once you come out of the tunnel, get into the right lane. After the first traffic light, you'll see it on your right side. Find the first available parking or just wait for someone to get out. There aren't many parking spots. Thank you , thank you , thank you my dear LuLee Really i appreciate that

I went to the Kabayal store and found a superman costume for my 2.5 year old and for only 25aed. There was also a batman and spiderman but only had bigger sizes. They had a princess costume for 35aed but it won't fit my 4 year old. Mollydxb: I just need a black top, take my sewing kit out and get started. UpsyDaisy: I asked her and she does not want to be a witch. Do you have a princess costume lol?

Dress your 1 year old in a black top and leggings. Buy 2 pairs of black socks, fill with newspaper and sow onto the side of the top - Spider. That's one saving

Thank you Cherry Ripe was at C4 yesterday but they haven't put them up yet. Will check again later this week. UpsyDaisy, my daughter is 4.5 years old but she's very tall for her age. I usually get her size 6, sometimes 7 when shopping for her.
