Second-Graders Dressed to the Nines: Idiom Fashion Show
January 14th 2022
Amelia Bedelia (FWCD Middle School Librarian Kim Gardner) was back at Fort Worth Country Day to host the Lower School’s Second-Grade Idiom Fashion Show before the winter break. Parents were in stitches as they watched their students take wordplay to the extreme on the red carpet in the Lou and Nick Martin Campus Center. Those pun-filled fashions included bubble skirts, baggy jeans, 14-karat gold necklaces, wingtip shoes, gowns with trains, ruffled party dresses, ball gowns, moon boots, sport coats, hoop skirts, bell-bottoms, balloon and bell sleeves, 10-gallon hats, and boat-neck and turtleneck shirts. Peggy Parish (author of the Amelia Bedelia books) would have been proud as punch!
