The Ultimate List Of Children’s Halloween Costume Ideas
If you are a fan of Halloween (which I know you are), and you have kids (which I know that you do), then you've clicked the right post! A real Halloween fan, just like yourself, must pass the knowledge of celebrating the All Hallows Eve to their spook-loving spawns. And what is the best way for that? Halloween kids costumes, of course!
Now, if for some reason you lack Halloween ideas at this moment, the list that you'll find below is filled with epicly gore-geous Halloween costume ideas for kids. With these kids costumes, you can show your little ones how to be the best Meatballs and Spaghetti, a notorious Biker, or the infamous couple from Breaking Bad, to get the most candy possible. The best part with these DIY Halloween costumes is that you can absolutely make them yourself, being an excellent horror-loving parent, that you are.
Now, scroll along for our collection of the best Halloween costume ideas for your youngsters. I bet Jack the Ripper himself couldn't come up with better DIY costume ideas, than those that we've gathered here!

Old Lady
SandraConners 10 years ago
Are you kidding me? This is disrespectful to make fun of the disabled & elderly? Children want to know their character & usually little girls like to be girly things, not this !!! Jeesh, how ridiculous is making your liitle one look like an old lady??
SandraConners 10 years ago
I think it's making fun of the disabled & elderly. What young child would even understand it? Jeessh ... Kids like fun costumes of characters they understand & know about & not some old lady with a walker ??
Willa Shaffer 11 years ago
My son's very first Halloween costume when he was 2 years old (46 tears ago!) was similar to this one, sans the walker. Love it!

Haha. I think Boredpanda has tricked me (after its usual treating) their up/down vote number is next to the Down arrow on the mobile site.

This is great. Halloween is scary monsters, the supernatural and the darker side. For some it's just become a cute fluffy fancy dress party.

This is great. Halloween is all about scary monsters, the supernatural and the darker side. Did it simply become a cute fancy dress party?
