Book Week Accessories for School Parades & Storybook Dress-Ups
Complete your school parade outfit with our range of Book Week accessories for kids, teachers, adults, librarians and parent helpers. Accessories are an easy way to turn simple clothing into a recognisable storybook character costume for Book Week, classroom activities, library events and themed dress-up days.
Book Week 2026 Costume Accessories
Book Week 2026 runs from 22–28 August in Australia. Many schools hold their parade or classroom dress-up day during this week, although the exact date can vary by school. Ordering accessories early gives you more time to match the final details to your child’s favourite book character or your teacher dress-up theme.
Hats, Glasses, Wigs & Character Props
Popular Book Week accessories include character glasses, hats, wigs, capes, wands, crowns, masks, animal ears, tails, gloves, wings and simple props. These small details can make characters such as Where’s Wally, wizards, pirates, princesses, doctors, vets, animals and fairy tale favourites much easier to recognise.
Easy Last-Minute Book Week Accessories
Need a quick Book Week idea? A few accessories can transform clothes from home into a school-ready costume. Add glasses and a striped top for a Where’s Wally-style look, a cape and wand for a wizard, a crown for a fairy tale character, a pirate hat for an adventure theme, or animal ears and a tail for a storybook animal costume.
Book Week Accessories for Teachers
Teachers and school staff can also use accessories to create a simple Book Week costume without needing a full outfit. A hat, wig, glasses, cape, prop or character accessory can make the theme clear while keeping the costume comfortable for a full day of classroom activities, supervision and school events.
