Babies can tire quickly of their Halloween costumes, so you’ll be glad that you have this glow-in-the-dark skeleton sleeper in your back pocket, er, diaper bag. It has stripes of orange on a white field, with glow-in-the-dark black bones. (Washing the garment inside-out will preserve the glow.) The sleeper’s ready-to-grow cuffs means baby gets even more use out of this sturdy, well-made garment, so don’t be afraid to buy a bigger size (newborn–3).
This sleeper suit from Hanna Andersson is everything your child’s costume is not; it’s soft, and made of organic cotton with smooth, flatlock seams. A neck-to-knee zipper — which facilitates fast diaper changes — has a protective tab at the neck. This sleeper suit can’t help but make your baby’s first Halloween extra sweet, by extending the masquerade into the wee hours of the night.
