Last Major Update:
The TeleTubbies are fictional humanoids who are pretty round as well as being covered with fur-like fleece. They have large eyes and faces like children. They also have TV monitors in their tummies and can receive signals through them. There’s an antenna on their heads. For the colors, and how you can tell them apart — Dipsy is green, Tinky Winky is purple, Po is red, and Laa-Laa is yellow.
These charming characters play in Teletubbyland. They love to roll in the grass, run around, laugh, plus watch real kids shown on the TVs in their tummies. They know what activities are scheduled because pinwheels and a speaker rise up like a sprinkler system to announce each day’s activities. The sun often laughs at these TeleTubbies and their antics. It rises to begin the show then sets at the end.
This show came from the BBC in Britain and ran from 1997 through 2001. The creators of the show wrote every one of the 365 episodes. The series was syndicated in the US on PBS and it was on the air until the middle of 2005. The series has been cancelled for several years now. TeleTubbies had high production values and achieved top commercial and critical success. It even won a Bafta award in 2002.
Teletubbies Costume Accessories
Teletubbies, the beloved children's show, features characters with unique and easily identifiable appearances that make for great costumes. The most critical element of a Teletubbies costume is the body suit. Each of the four main characters has a distinct color: Tinky Winky is purple, Dipsy is green, Laa-Laa is yellow, and Po is red. A full-body suit or a long-sleeved shirt and pants combo in these colors can serve as the base of your costume.
Next, each Teletubby has a unique antenna shape on top of their head: Tinky Winky has a triangle, Dipsy has a straight line, Laa-Laa has a curl, and Po has a circular antenna. These can be recreated using wire and a headband or a hat, and should be covered with fabric that matches the color of your Teletubby.
A large, round belly is also a distinct feature of the Teletubbies. This can be achieved by stuffing the front of your body suit. And don't forget the TV screen! Each Teletubby has a silver rectangular screen on their stomach. You can recreate this with silver fabric or foil.
Finally, you may want to consider adding the iconic Teletubby accessories: Tinky Winky's red bag, Dipsy's black and white hat, Laa-Laa's orange ball, and Po's scooter. These props can add an extra layer of authenticity to your costume.
Group and couples costume ideas for Teletubbies Costumes
Teletubbies costumes are ideal for group or family costumes. With four main characters, each person in the group can choose to be a different Teletubby. This not only presents a cohesive group costume, but also allows each person to have a distinct and easily identifiable outfit.
For couples, choosing to be any two of the Teletubbies can make for a fun and recognizable costume duo. Whether it's Tinky Winky and Po, or Dipsy and Laa-Laa, you're sure to stand out. You can also consider dressing as one of the Teletubbies and the other as the Sun Baby for a fun twist on the couples costume idea.
Another unique idea for group costumes is to include the characters of Noo-Noo the vacuum cleaner and the Sun Baby. These additional characters expand the group costume possibilities and make it perfect for larger groups.
Regardless of the combination you choose, Teletubbies costumes are sure to be a hit due to their colorful and memorable character designs.
