The Cutest Baby Halloween Costumes
As long as your baby is kept warm and dry, costumes can be easy and adorable on him or her
. Celebrating your baby's first Halloween is a special, fun time to bond as a family. Costumes are not just for school-age kids or adults, as cute, fun, and comfortable outfits can be found for little ones as well. Some of the most popular baby Halloween costumes include:
Baby Caterpillar Costume
For whole family fun, have an older child dress as a butterfly to go along with this adorable caterpillar costume. This baby Halloween costume idea works well for both infant babies and older children who are learning to walk. For a fun, warm and cute costume, dress your baby in yellow or green. Sew (or tape) ten legs onto the side of the shirt and pants. Add on a set of antennae that can be found at a costume or party store, and your baby is a little green caterpillar! For infants that must be carried, mom can wear a shirt with a butterfly or flower on it, to complete the outfit.
Mommy and Me Costumes
One fun way to bond with your baby and have wonderful pictures for years to come is to share your baby's first Halloween by wearing similar costumes, or themed costumes. These can include dressing a baby in a spider outfit, wearing all black with spider legs attached to the sides. The parent would wear all black as well, and glitter-paint a web on the front of their shirt.
Other fun parent child costumes include hippies (dress baby and mom in matching tie-dyed shirts), rainbow and cloud, butterflies, princess and a pea. Anything that can be paired together and are creative are excellent choices for parent/child costume ideas.
Dress your baby as an animal
Anything with a small, fluffy tail is adorable on a baby. Animal costumes are sweet and fun, and often provide comfort and warmth for chilly Halloween nights. Dress your baby in all of one color, such as brown for a puppy and pink for a piglet. Use hypoallergenic face paint to draw whiskers, and add a set of animal ears to complete the outfit. Popular animal costume ideas include bunnies, cats, dogs, pigs and birds.
Elvis Baby Halloween Costume
Dressing your baby in all white, with a white cape and a black wig will make the cutest Elvis around. Note, however, that many babies will not keep a wig on for long. This costume is funny, sweet and can be matched with a small guitar or microphone.
Tips for the Perfect Baby Halloween Costumes
Generally, baby Halloween costumes provide a fun way for parents to bond with their new babies. While they have control over costume choices, parents can put together sweet, adorable and comfortable outfits for their children to celebrate this fun holiday.
Babies can be highly allergic to face paint, so only use hypoallergenic makeup and test it several days ahead. Babies also do not like their faces covered, so avoid masks. In addition, as Halloween falls in autumn, keeping your baby warm and dry is paramount.
