Barbies, crackerjacks and crash test dummies – they are all cuter when they are kids Halloween costumes. There is something about a little face peaking out of Frankenstein eyes that just melts our hearts.
The animal kingdom is represented with peacocks and jellyfish. Many kids like to dress up as food, such as steak, A1 sauce and a chef salad. Cotton candy, push up pops and gumballs are also very popular. Personally, we love the four year old who agreed to be half Hall and half Oates.
In addition, ideas here range from Optimus Prime, Inside Out characters, a mailtruck, Sharknado and even a haunted castle!
If the child in your life like to chose their own costume, this will rouse his/her imagination. If you like to choose your kids Halloween costumes, then enjoy! The costumes here will entertain you with their range of possibilities. Watch out kids…
My daughter has been on a roll over the past few years….my boys only want to be characters out of star wars and she only wants to be something that you won’t see everyone else wearing on the street. This year, she wanted to be a RED BIRD… So, although my creativity has evolved to … Read more
From the time my granddaughter (who lives in another state) was six years old she has wanted to be the Wendy’s Restaurant girl for Halloween. My daughter and I searched online and catalogs for a Wendy’s costume (including finding this site) but never found one that we liked. That just would never do for the Nana!!! I … Read more
Every year we try to create a fun sibling costume. This year I wanted to hit it out of the park by doing something fun, unique and crafty. The kids had many ideas and finally we all landed on Lego people. In the end the Lego Munchkins Costumes were very economical and able to be used … Read more
Derek is a 10 year old boy in a wheelchair. I try to make a costume out of any type of box so it works the easiest to put on and off easily on the wheelchair. His costumes cannot have any thing that needs to put on his head or any clothing that is too … Read more
When trying to decide what my college friends and I should be for Halloween, we went through a lot of different ideas. We needed something warm, (it gets cold up here in Ohio on Halloween), cheap and fast. Superheros? Too cliche. Crayons? Been there, done that. 90’s Cartoon Characters? Over done. We couldn’t think of … Read more
My 4 yr old girls wanted to be bugs, and I wanted them to be somewhat realistic – so I did an online search and found this site and saw the awesome things previous posters had done! I wanted their wings to be as appropriately sized as possible, and I can’t sew – but luckily we had … Read more
Darling son number 1 spotted a triceratops dress up in a store the other week, but our challenge is quite simply his size; at three and a half, he is wearing clothes for five year olds. The costume in the store was for age 3-5 and an all in one which definitely wouldn’t work for … Read more
My son wanted to be a light blue Pac Man ghost for Halloween. I took a large piece of cardboard and cut it to shape (I looked at images online to figure out the shape). Then I painted it blue and added the eyes. I made straps out of heavy clear duct tape. Take two … Read more
My son was having a Super Mario birthday party and we thought it would be fun if all the kids could dress as Mario. Since we had several kids at the party and I was going to let the kids keep them as favors, I had to make it easy and cheap. I found some … Read more
I started this Perry the Platypus Costume with the feet. I watched a few AWESOME tutorials from Canine Hybrid on YouTube on how to make feet, definitely worth the time to watch those first. It was very satisfying to get the feet done and fun to watch my son run around in! It was all the … Read more
To make her face I used toilet paper and latex, black paint and red blood. First I got a peace of toilet paper and covered one eye with tape. Then I colored that one eye all black. Around that one eye and the rest of her face I put one layer of laytex on her … Read more
I decided that I was so tired of all these costumes now days that have no originality that I deceived to make my boys. My husband had the idea for my younger son to be the KFC man which was super easy since we had an all-white suite that was used just months prior for his baptism, worked out … Read more
