What's in the Box

• White astronaut jumpsuit with silver metallic shoulder yoke, mission patches, and ankle/wrist cuffs
• Foam helmet with silver trim band and 3D antenna detail

This Kids Astronaut Costume brings the wonder of space exploration straight to Book Week, career day, or any science-themed dress-up event. The white jumpsuit features mission patches across the chest and sleeves—Saturn's Rings, Star Explorer—and a metallic silver shoulder yoke that catches the light like a real spacesuit.

The foam helmet fits like a hood, with a structured dome shape and a rigid 3D antenna on top. Silver metallic trim bands at the ankles and wrists give it that retro NASA-era look, and the front zipper makes getting in and out a breeze. Built-in hip pockets are handy for stashing small treasures or a pretend moon rock sample.

Perfect For

Book Week & Science Themes: A natural pick for any space exploration story—Moon Base Alpha, space adventure novels, or school science fiction projects. Works beautifully for astronaut-themed career days and school STEM events.

School Dress-Up Days: Ideal for 100 days of school dressed as a future astronaut, kindy space-themed photo days, or any classroom parade celebrating explorers and scientists.

Birthday Parties & Play: Great for space-themed birthday parties, museum visits, or backyard rocket ship adventures. The jumpsuit is comfortable enough for all-day wear.

How to Wear It

Pair with white sneakers or silver boots to complete the space explorer look. Skip the school backpack and carry a pretend control panel or telescope for extra astronaut authenticity.

Parent FAQs

What size should I order?

Check the Rubie's size chart for chest and height measurements. The jumpsuit has a relaxed fit and elasticated cuffs, so if your child is between sizes we'd say size up for comfort and room to grow.

Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes—the jumpsuit goes on over normal clothes, and the front zipper makes it easy to get on and off. The helmet fits like a hood, so no fiddly straps or fasteners.

How do I store the helmet without crushing the antenna?

The antenna is foam-filled with internal support, but we'd still recommend storing the helmet upright or hanging the costume to keep the antenna from getting squashed in a drawer. It bounces back if slightly bent.

Is this suitable for outdoor Book Week parades?

Absolutely. The polyester fabric is lightweight and breathable, and the helmet is foam so it won't overheat your child. Great for school parades, kindy photo days, or outdoor science fairs.

Care: Spot clean or gentle cold machine wash; hang to dry. Store helmet upright to protect antenna shape.
