Do it yourself

Halloween costume for children can be done easily and fairly quickly with your own hands. The simplest and most fun casting outfit can be made from a large piece of white fabric, cutting holes in it for the eyes and putting on a child.

A mummy costume is another wonderful and easy-to-make option for Halloween: you just need to wrap the child with wide bandages and, if you wish, apply red paint to some places.

If there is luminous or white paint in the arsenal, you can dress the child in a skeleton suit by drawing stencils on black clothes.

A child can put on fangs on his teeth and draw a thin red line (imitation of a drop of blood) on the corner of his mouth, as well as put on a black and white suit and you get a simple and at the same time bright image of a little vampire!

Spider

The children's spider catcher costume is suitable for both boys and girls. The outfit is not difficult to make yourself: it is enough to choose a plain black clothing or a large piece of black fabric for making a cape and apply white lines of a web to it. The spiders depicted on the previously drawn web complete the image. Insects can be finished with paint or glued on decorative spiders, pre-purchased at the store.

Animals

Charming and funny children's costumes of various animals are perfect for Halloween. Costumes are especially popular:

  • black cat;
  • a lion from the fairy tale “the wizard of Oz”;
  • a bat;
  • wild cats;
  • crocodile or dinosaur.

Of course, if you have patterns and desire, you can sew any costume with your own hands, but, of course, many models of children's Halloween costumes can be purchased in stores or on specialized sites. The easiest to make, but very cute black cat costume is quite easy to make yourself by putting on black pants or leggings with a black turtleneck on the child and beat this image with painted mustaches near the nose and black fabric sewn around the edges in the form of a tail.

Today, stores sell a huge amount of items needed to create a scary and interesting image, for example: cat ears, bat wings, fang lining, witches and wizards hats, lion's manes, gloves in the shape of cat legs or legs of a wild cat.

Witch

The witch costume is very popular among little fashionistas. To create such a magical outfit, you will need an old dress of dark colors, decorative additions in the form of frogs, snakes and spiders, a small broom, a nose pad to make it long and curved and an indispensable hat in such a suit. The old dress needs to be shredded a bit, decorated with decor (frogs and snakes), and the broom can be made independently from small branches. For a more vivid and memorable image, you should draw dark circles under the eyes with the help of shadows, imitate soot traces on the cheeks and paint the lips of the little witch with dark lipstick.

The costume of the Russian woman Yaga is created in the same way, but instead of a witch's hat, an ordinary rag bandage is perfect.

Pirate

The costume of the master of the seas and oceans consists of many important details, such as:

  • high leather boots for boys and Czech women or black sandals for girls;
  • wide-brimmed hats and pirate bandanas;
  • wide pants or trousers or leggings for the smallest pirates;
  • vest and corset;
  • loose-fitting shirt with wide sleeves or a vest / T-shirt in a vest;
  • a belt with a sword;
  • interesting decorative details: an earring in the ear, a bandage covering one eye, a hook on the hand, feathers on the hat).

You can complement the image of a little pirate for Halloween with the help of spots of red paint on a white shirt and torn details of the costume. For children over 10 years old, it is better to choose a costume with many elements and details, while for very small pirates it will be enough to try on only a shirt and a hat-hat.

If desired, you can draw a thin line of twisted black antennae and a black beard under the child’s nose, like that of Captain Hook, which will undoubtedly make the image more vivid and funny. If a child is fond of Hollywood movies about pirates, he can be pleased with a pirate bandage and a dreadlock wig, like the famous movie hero Captain Jack Sparrow.

Angels and devils

Halloween is a holiday of all saints, therefore the costumes of angels and devils will be appropriate, which boys and girls really like for their originality and brightness. For kids who want to dress in a lighter outfit for the holiday, an angel costume with decorative wings behind its back, a spacious white dress or a suit and a halo over his head that rests on a wire or rim is perfect.

Children who want to try on the image of negative heroes will like the costumes of little devils, made in bright and rich colors. Such outfits will require not only costumes or dresses in red and black, but also decorative horns, a tail with a pointed end and a trident. In order to complement the image of the little devil, you can draw black antennae and evil black eyebrow lines under the child’s nose.

Fairy-tale heroes

Many children try on the image of fairy-tale heroes during Halloween. For example, the scarecrow costume from the fairy tale “The Wizard of Oz” is easy to make up from an old plaid shirt or sweater with patches and worn jeans, complemented by a straw hat. On the cheeks you can draw freckles and patches.

Costume Koshchei the Immortal is easy to make by drawing on a black sweater and pants drawings in the form of bones with white or glowing paint, complementing the image with a long dark cloak on the shoulders and a high crown with pointed tips. Girls can try on the images of princesses and fairies from various fairy-tale cartoons, wearing bright dresses that are most similar to the outfits of their favorite heroines and complementing the image with magic wands and small transparent wings behind their backs.

Fancy options

Halloween costumes for children can be not only scary or fabulous, but also funny and very original, such as:

  • Matryoshka costume for girls, complemented by a bright kokoshnik;
  • a chicken suit made of soft and fluffy materials;
  • pumpkin costume for the little ones;
  • butterfly and caterpillar costume for girls;
  • costumes of heroes of television series;
  • original outfits of inanimate objects, such as a suit of ice cream or a Christmas tree;
  • costumes that convey the images of various celebrities.

In fact, the choice of unusual costumes for children of all ages is simply gorgeous and is limited only by the imagination and creativity of adults.

How to choose the right one?

What outfit should be worn on a toddler and an older child? We don’t take very scary models for small children under 9 years old, so it’s worth choosing more kind and positive outfits, such as princess and fairy dresses, pirate and super-hero costumes, animals from fairy tales and kind wizards.

Older children (12 years old) can choose the costume of the negative hero of the film, series or cartoon. Outfits sewn or bought for Halloween are useful for various holidays and events in schools and kindergartens, as well as for theme festivals, balls and holidays.
