Make your toddler’s first Halloween experiences memorable. Toddler Halloween costumes are available in a wide variety of styles. Your toddler can dress up as his or her favorite cartoon character or favorite movie star. Toddler costumes are available in traditional styles as well. Some of the toddler Halloween costumes that caught my eye this year are included here.

If you have a boy, Bob-the-Builder is still a popular costume for many young children. The Bob-the-Builder costume includes a checkered shirt, overalls, hard hat, and a few tools to carry in his tool belt. This is a great Halloween costume for a toddler because it doesn’t cover your child’s face and there is no makeup needed - so you don’t have to worry about makeup getting smudged all over the place.

Harry Potter/Hermione costumes are another great idea for toddlers. The Hogwarts uniform includes a robe and neck tie. You can improve the costume with other accessories as well. Wands are a great addition to this basic toddler Halloween costume.

This may seem obvious, but creating a ghost costume is a good idea if you’re on a tight budget and would prefer to make your own costume. A bed sheet or pillow case makes a great starting place but this costume can be made easily with a white sweat outfit and some face paint too. If you’re using a sheet, it can be made to cover the whole head and body making it difficult to tell your toddler apart from other kids or you can cut a whole for your toddler’s head and then have the sheet cover the body area only. By using this method, you’ll be able to tell your child apart from other children and still have a great costume. To add a unique touch on an old classic, use a thin white sheet, get a bunch of glow sticks and attach them to your child’s shirt. This would give a cool glowing affect to your toddler’s ghostly costume!

If you prefer to find a cute costume for your toddler, here’s an option you might want to consider. Your toddler can be cute as a bug in a Lady Bug or Butterfly costume this year. These costumes can be home made or purchased already made. Other bugs are available as well. Brightly colored bug costumes usually go over really well with toddlers as they are fun to play with as well as pretty enough to keep your child’s attention and get your child excited about the holiday.

One company you might want to consider when purchasing a bug or animal costume is Tom Arma costumes. These costumes are of the highest quality and they are some of the absolute cutest costumes around! They are a bit on the pricier side, but well worth the Halloween pictures of your toddler that you’ll get to cherish forever.

There are a few other things to keep in mind when choosing a toddler Halloween costume. First you should make sure your toddler can go to the bathroom or at least be taken out of the costume quickly at potty time to avoid any unnecessary accidents Another thing you want to keep in mind is that your child needs to be able to eat treats, walk, and play without being restricted. Being able to see your child’s face and tell your child from all of the other ghouls on Halloween is important. You don’t want to lose your child in the crowd either. If you can see your child’s face it is easier to keep track of your little monster.
