What's in the Box

• Navy blue long-sleeve police shirt with embroidered badge, star emblem, and shoulder epaulettes
• Matching police cap with shield badge and gold-trim peak

This Kids Police Officer Costume Set turns Book Week community helpers day into instant authority — navy blue button-front shirt with a gold star badge, "POLICE" name patch, and classic shoulder epaulettes complete with decorative chain detailing. The matching peaked cap has an embroidered shield badge and gold band around the brim.

The shirt's structured collar and dual chest pockets with button flaps nail the authentic law enforcement look. Gold-tone buttons run the front, and the sleeve patches add that official department touch. Fabric is a comfortable cotton-blend twill — breathable enough for a full school day or afternoon parade.

Perfect For

Book Week & Career Day: A natural pick for community helpers themes, "People Who Help Us" parades, or any storybook featuring police officers or detectives.

School Dress-Up Days: Occupation day, 100 days of school (pair with a grey wig for the retired-cop angle), or any themed event where your child wants to represent law enforcement.

Role-Play & Parties: Birthday parties, Halloween trick-or-treating, or backyard imaginative play — works as a standalone costume or part of a cops-and-robbers group theme.

How to Wear It

Pair with dark pants or jeans and black shoes to complete the uniform. Add aviator sunglasses and a toy baton (not included) for full officer energy — the styling photos show both, and they really sell the look.

Parent FAQs

Q: What size should I order?

Check the size chart image for chest and length measurements. The shirt has a structured cut, so if your child is between sizes, we'd say size up for room to layer a tee underneath.

Q: Can they wear this over regular clothes?

Yes — the shirt goes on over a tee or long-sleeve top. Cap fits most kids' head sizes with an internal elastic or adjustable band.

Q: What else do I need to complete the costume?

Pants, belt, shoes, and any accessories (baton, sunglasses, walkie-talkie) are not included. The shirt and cap are the core uniform pieces; the rest you likely have at home.

Q: Is this suitable for Book Week?

Absolutely. Police officers appear in countless children's books about community helpers, detectives, and neighbourhood heroes — perfect for Book Week dress-up or kindy character parades.

Care: Hand wash cold, line dry. Press with a cool iron if needed.
