Little Red was walking through the woods to her Grandmother's house and came across this creature in her Grandmother's Bed.
What big ears you have Grandma! (Mask made from a paper plate formed into a nose, ears and forehead, this attached to a stocking cap covered in fake fir and felt.)
What big teeth you have Grandma!!! (Also made from a paper plate, attached to a headband. Teeth made from homemade clay painted with fingernail polish.)
Luckily the Wolf didn't have an appetite for little girl tonight.
The Big Bad wolf was still a scary looking creature though.
