Simple Halloween Costume Ideas For Kids

As the eve of candy, jack-o-lanterns, and merry mischief draws ever closer, parents are getting ready to  choose the perfect disguises for their littlest ones. To ensure that this holiday is an absolute treat, we have our picks for the coolest no-fuss costumes this year!

 

For the jungle baby: Make sure your littlest trickster is in on the fun this Halloween. Lazoo Worldwide’s playful rompers are just the ticket for a look that speaks of a far away forest but is still cute, comfy, and age-appropriate. We’re especially in love with the Hoshi Character Romper.

$32.99, lazoo.com

 

For candy collection: It just wouldn’t be Halloween without an ample candy stash at the end of the evening. Make sure your costumed crusader has a sturdy and festive vessel to hold all those goodies throughout the night. We love this whimsical tote from Groovy Holidays. Choose from a bat design–our fave–a pumpkin, a ghost, and more!

Haunted Hello Kitty: Halloween fun doesn’t have to be all about crazy costumes. If your kids simply feel like donning some festive garb to get in the spirit early, check out the sweetly spooky new collaboration from Johnny Cupcakes and Hello Kitty. These two iconic brands have joined forces once again to offer up a line of Halloween t-shirts for adults and kids. Whether you opt for “Hello Mummy,” “Wicked Kitty,” or “Skeleton Kitty,” you’ll cause a fashion-forward brouhaha!

For the trendy tot: With leopard print being all the rage for fall, snap up this fashionable micro-fleece coverall from Tiny Tillia to do double duty as your baby’s first Halloween costume, and as a snuggly and style-savvy outfit for when winter’s chill sets in. Perky little cat ears and a cheery pink zipper complete the look.

A bone to pick: Why not opt for classic scare tactics this Halloween? Variations on the skeleton costume have long been a staple of All Hallow’s Eve and the effect is always delightfully spooky. Try this cozy, 100% cotton skeleton getup from The Children’s Place. And with gloves and a hat, this look will keep your little one warm as well as festively dressed.
