Dressing up as Big Bird

Big Bird costumes come in a range of different sizes from children’s to adults. Most Big Bird costumes will have a yellow body, a place for the wearers face, and then the big bird head and beak on top. To add to the costume a white long sleeve shirt, and orange pants need to be worn. This gives the right bird colors for Big Bird. Big Bird is not complete without friends such as Kermit, Cookie Monster, or Bert and Ernie.
