Here are a few places where you can grab your costume for kids:
Classic Costumes for Kids
We all know the classic dress costumes for Halloween – we probably dressed in them ourselves when we were younger! And I’m sure they’ll be an absolute hit with your kids.
Arrgh, are they ready to dress up in a classic pirate costume? Or how about a black cat fancy dress costume? That’s pretty simple to put together, with a black fluffy jumper (or even a onesie), with black cat ears, a tail and draw on some whiskers! How about a girl’s spider witch costume? It’s easy, dark and a no-sew costume – so simple to take on and off!
Looking for an absolutely classic costume? Who you gonna call? That’s right, the Cream Ghostbuster Fancy Dress Costume from Sainsbury’s! We’ve already mentioned a skeleton, but why don’t you go as a family of skeletons? It’s inclusive and will be a cute family Halloween memory!
Adorable Costumes for Girls
If your daughters like all things cute and cuddly, they’ll love these—and everyone else will, too!
We think a beautiful fairy costume will spark-le this fun-filled night. With glittery wings and bright and colourful dresses, they’ll definitely win the cutest costume contest! If they love horses and magical creatures, then a unicorn costume is a brilliant option. They’ll be the belle of the ball, pastel-coloured and glorious!
Lions may be wild animals…but it’s also super cute when kids dress up as them! With manes as big as their tiny faces and paws bigger than their hands. You can’t help but say awww when dressing them up! So, this lion costume for the little ones is definitely an awesome idea.
Awesome Costumes for Boys
Looking for the perfect Halloween fancy dress costume for your little boy? We’ve got you sorted! If they love the popular book series Diary of a Wimpy Kid then you’ve got to check out this Diary of a Wimpy Kid costume from Very. This Spongebob costume is the perfect option for any Spongebob fans out there! They can also channel their inner F1 Driver with this epic F1 costume. Not forgetting the most magical costume of all! A Harry Potter-inspired costume!
Well, we hope we’ve given you lots of inspiration for your kids’ Halloween costumes! Whether they go as classic Star Wars characters, like a C-3PO-style costume, or as characters from a classic video game, like Mario or Luigi, they’re set to have a spooktacular season and a brilliant night out trick-or-treating!
