What! Ignore those looks. As long as she is not wearing anything inappropriate let her dress up. It is how children express themselves.
Let her be little. One day she’ll stop and it will be a sad day because it means she’s getting older. Let her have fun and be herself!
Stop when she’s ready…kids grow so fast let them enjoy their childhood

My daughters 7 and still occasionally like to dress up and did all the time at that age. It’s creative and why would anyone give a kid dirty looks?? My kids often went out as Superman and Wonder Woman. Meant I was well protected 
Never discourage your child’s ability to outwardly express themselves just bc some ppl can’t get over themselves.

Screw the looks its a child living their best life… I dont get why anyone would be mad or think their looks or opinions matter🙄 let her be her momma, dont let this mess of a world we live in kill her spirit so early! F those people.
Rock those cheetah whiskers baby!
I’m 28 and still wear my Halloween costume all day. I wear tiaras and stuff on my birthday. You’re never too old for a little dress up fun
Ignore the looks, don’t steal her shine. Let her be little as long as she wants to, you only have these years for now.

You let that baby dress up as long as she wants. Who cares what others say or think. Problem with people today is they think they have an opinion about everyone else’s kids.
Tall as a 5 year old well my girl is 5 and she goes out dressed up. We went for a long walk couple weeks ago and she went out as Elsa everyone called her a princess 
tomorrow she is a mermaid 🧜♀ 
She’s only little once, let her dress up took she starts school. Keep her imagination growing
My oldest is almost 9 and sometimes still does this! I think is great, let them be who/ what they want.
Let her keep dressing up if she enjoys it! She will soon grow out of it by herself! You don’t need to pressure her to stop using her imagination if anything it’ll do her good to be herself and I bet you love seeing her smile aswell, ignore the judgemental people your the only person on this earth that knows your child 100% x

sorry I’m going to be hated but dressing up at home is one thing letting a child believe the world is a fairy tail letting them go out at any age dressed up doesn’t happen here either
My son would go out randomly as a
Iron Man, a ninja, pirate, military (and sometimes a little bit of everything) until he was about 5ish And then he toned it down on his own a bit. Even now though he has days where he is dressed in clothing and wears a pirate hat. Just cause. And he is 8. Let them be little. Who cares about the others.
I say let her do her thing, It shows she is a individual & that is a good thing 
She’s still so little. I’d let her be a kid. I love dressing my little one up.

Lol my son is 7 and the other day he wanted to wear his Jack skellington suit and I was stoked!! I love when my kids dress up, he loves to wear his woody costume when he gets a chance to. I’ve also bought a ton of Disney dresses for my 4 and 1yr old to wear and they love it and I never discourage them from wanting to wear them in public! They re only kids for such a short time and encouraging them to be themselves and wear what they love while using their imagination… is one of the best thibgs a parent can do for a child! I’m sad to hear people gave ur child or you dirty looks, I’ve only ever noticed the people complimenting or smiling at my kids… but it’s probably cause I usually don’t pay attention to people… don’t like adults, majority are assholes lol
Never! Let her dress up as long as she wants to. Dont kill that spark <3

I honestly can’t fathom how some of these comments are saying to not let kids live a fairy tale outside of home? Like the kid is literally 3.5! At freaking 10 I was swimming in the pool pretending I was a full on mermaid. Let the kid have her imagination and have fun! You should be happy your daughter is happy and not care what other ppl think or say or how they look at you. Who knows where her imagination will take her.

My son is 4 and LOVES to wear costumes!!! Matter of fact I bought all superhero costumes and blow up panda costume after Halloween last year for Santa to leave as presents!
For as long as they want to. They eventually outgrow it. 3.5 is still young. Why not? They are not hurting anybody. I see nothing wrong with it, the world is bad enough might as well make the best of it.

Girl, dont listen to people like Judith Scraggs Smith. Pretty sure she’s one that would glare you down with disgust if she saw your 3 YR OLD outside dressed up. No, life is not a fairy tale and as long as you allow her to mature within due time, let her dress up. You’re doing a WONDERFUL job allowing her to express herself!! You never know, she can become a designer, an artist, or even a social worker for kids in the future. Because she wants to be expressive does not mean it will stunt her growth whatsoever. It will ignite and fuel it!!! My daughter is 6 and the only thing I keep at home is makeup aside from a lip balm. Anyone gives you a dirty look, give them a tissue, they have too much smugness and jealousy stuck in their eyes.

The worst mistake I made as a parent was listen to all the nosy, know it all, judgmental assholes that seem to freaking swarm for some reason when you have a kid. They will drive you insane with the contradictions. If someone has an opinion thats fine but the second they start making it known they are absolutely an asshole. Trust your own intuition and do what feels right when it happens.
do not crush her sense of adventure and wonder why should she stop let her be her… my granddaughter who is in her mid twenties often dresses up with her 8 yr old enjoy her creativity and adventure

Leave her enjoy dressing up .just becsause shes a bit taller shes still only 3 yrs in her mind … Not 5 yrs
Let that child play and dream. She will be an out of the box thinker instead of a sheep. When going to a special place such as school or church dress accordingly. But everyday life at 3 have fun

My eldest will be 7 next month, she could also pass for 2years older. She had a whole wardrobe of princess dresses at 3/4 and wore them out at every opportunity. She still has a few now, she chooses her own outfits and I can’t remember the last time she wore dress up clothes out, she is an extremely responsible and mature little lady who has been allowed to explore her own identity and make her own decisions. Your daughter will grow out of it and you’ll probably be sadder for it, you allowing her an imaginative childhood will not hamper her maturing, I feel if anything it enhances the process

Ummm what ever age she wants to stop!!! I mean yall telling her to help her child mature but I’m pretty sure painting lbs of makeup on your face and wearing dresses and shit is the same thing! Stfu shes a freaking child let her be a child as long as possible bc this world is a cruel place bc we are forcing children to give up the light inside of them to be “mature” who says you cant dress like a tiger and be mature at the same damn time!! Pleas dont put your daughter fire out!!
As long as they want to! Anyone that thinks that a child needs to “grow up” needs to piss off and mind their own business!! I took my 6 year old out on a scooter ride dressed in his Incredibles fancy dress not so long ago and he loved it and so did I

You’re child is only 3.5 why do you care what anyone else thinks of her? She’s a kid let her be a child. You can’t please everyone but you can let your child be happy.
Let her be her. She knows who she is.
My daughter is going to be 5 in a week (but everyone always thinks she’s older cuz she’s pretty tall for her age) and I let her dress up to go out whenever she wants. Excuse my language but I don’t give a shit what others think lol and so does my daughter. I mean we rarely do get dirty looks, we usually get smiles instead but if we did, my daughter probably wouldn’t even realize. Some people are boring, oh well.
This is in my hometown and its bringing happiness to alot of people. Let your kids use there imagination and let them be kids. There will always be a karen out there
