Cute Spooks: Halloween Costumes

Halloween truly is a holiday for children. It is the most hyped-up game of dress-up, ever, where using your imagination and playing pretend is unabashedly encouraged. From the realistic to the fantastic, kids can don a costume to fulfill a dream of being a train conductor, a knight, their favorite farm animal or whatever else their little minds can conjure up. And all of this excitement takes place before there’s even a mention of candy! Best. Night. Ever. For weary parents chasing down their child’s specifications (“A pink dragon with yellow hair.” “A green and white Ninja.”), Halloween can lead to many nights trolling the internet or hitting the mall for the perfect costume. We’ve rounded up a few that we found to be charming, a little bit different and a whole lot of cute, and that will hopefully fit your little one’s vision of themselves for the big night.

• Darth Vader Infant Bodysuit Halloween Costume

  

  The best part of this pint-sized Darth Vader costume- besides the fact that a teeny, tiny Darth Vader is awesome- is that it is a onesie with stretchy pants and a hat. This means it is easy to get on and off and is comfortable and washable. Bonus, this cute costume is only $15, making the dark side very appealing.
