Everyone will be as mad as a hatter when they see you in this great Miss Alice costume, and realize that they missed out on it. Miss Alice includes a dress with lace up front and buckle accents. Also features an attached apron.Are you looking for a unique Halloween costume idea for your toddler or baby but are having trouble coming up with one? Finding a costume for your toddler or baby that's different from the norm can be a challenge. You don't want to put them in something uncomfortable, or use toxic face paints they may get in their mouths, or need to have props they could hurt themselves with. That pretty much leaves you with the usual animal, pumpkin, cartoon,or Disney character costume.
Rather than trying to come up with some elaborate costume idea though, one of those usual ideas may be your best bet. The little ones tend to like to dress upas their favorite animal, or their favorite character. While older children tend to go for a Halloween costume that's scary, like a vampire or a headless zombie, these ideas may be too unsettling for your toddler. If you have an infant, they're probably too young to know the difference, however the things you would need for a costume like that would be too uncomfortable or dangerous to your baby.
Most toddlers already have favorite television or storybook characters, and they'll love dressing up like them! Actually, you may have a hard time keeping them out of their Halloween costume! Now you may be thinking to yourself that your child would be just adorable dressed up like Mickey Mouse, or Superman, or one of the characters you're familiar with from your childhood. Your child, however, may have their own ideas of who they want to be. If they're old enough to talk, then most likely they have their own opinion! Characters are changing all the time. Some of the popular ones these days include the Backyardigans, Bratz, and any kind of animal. There are still some old favorites hanging around also, such as Winnie the Pooh, Dr. Seuss,and Disney. If you're not sure, just ask your child.
The good thing about these costumes is that it's easier on YOU. It's so much easier to just order or pick up a ready-made costume. Rentals are normally available also in these characters, but you may have a problem when it comes time to return it. Your little one may not be so anxious to give up their favorite costume. Plus, by buying the costume you don't have to worry about your toddler spilling his drink on it, or your baby getting baby messes on it.
When purchasing your child's costume, be certain to pay attention to what you're getting. Some costumes are made better than others, and of course you want to pay attention to any safety hazards. Make sure the costume is non-flammable and has no choking hazards.
If you have the time, you may be able to provide a homemade Halloween costume for toddlers and babies. A onesie or one-piece suit with a hood makes a great starting point for animal costumes. All you need to do is add a tail, some ears, and paint on some whiskers and/or a nose and you have a costume! If you don't have a hood, you can sew some ears on a soft headband. You can normally find what you need in craft stores for a very good price. You can also "borrow" the pieces you need off of a stuffed animal, or a hand-me-down costume.
These Halloween costumes for toddlers and babies are simple to make or buy and are comfortable and safe for your child. Whatever you or your child chooses, they will look adorable this Halloween and will be sure to get lots of candy for Mom and Dad! Happy Halloween!
