These Purim costumes deserve a prize

In the annals of Purim costumes, there are certain themes that get replayed each year, whether it’s Queen Esther and King Ahasuerus, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or, this year, Wonder Woman and her posse of superheroes.

But as with any costuming opportunity, there are some people out there who aren’t satisfied with the tried and true, the store-bought or familiar themes.

And some lucky kids have parents who clearly spend many days working on their Purim costumes.

Bus company Egged posted a video on their Facebook page of two kids dressed as a miniature version of one of their green buses, driving down the sidewalk of a local park.

One of their parents must be an Egged driver.

An even more creative costume may be this one, also posted on Facebook and viewed hundreds of thousands of times, of two kids dressed as “Na Nachs,” the sub-sect of Breslover Hasidim who are often seen on city streets dancing on top of and around white vans, grooving to techno-Hasidic music.
