Toddler Halloween Costumes

Fun & Non Scary Outfits :)

This page has lots of ideas for toddler Halloween costumes that both you and your little one will enjoy this October. It covers the art of getting both boys and girls dressed up.

Skip to boys' Halloween costumes here.

There is one thing you absolutely must do when getting a Halloween outfit for any small child if you want to make your celebrations go more smoothly:

Let your child decide what they want to wear. Take for example a witch's costume. My friend has a daughter, Grace, who hardly ever takes hers off.

However, Grace might just as easily have burst into tears upon seeing it.

That is why buying it and then presenting it to your toddler might result in one very frightened little person.

Sometimes we forget that things that are no problem to us can frighten the life out of a 2-year-old.

Example: I remember my eldest son being terrified of a tomato he spied one day while we were having lunch when he was abot 2 and a half.

It took me a while to understand what he was crying about.

"Pider!" he quivered, hiding from the little red vegetable (Ok, fruit!)

He thought the tomato stalk was a spider.

So your main aim is to have a happy toddler.


Halloween Costumes For Girls

There is absolutely no need to force your daughter to be a witch! This bee costume is a great way to brighten up any Halloween night. It's a little unusual, but entirely in keeping with the spirit of the celebration.

This orange dress with pumpkin face paint and tights is a great way to create a Halloween look while keeping your daughter content if she's only ever happy in a dress.

It's also a lovely warm color, which is just what you need on a cold winter's night!



Another easy one is a cat costume, like this one. If you don't want to dress your child in black, just accessorise some darker colored clothes.


This snow princess outfit is one of those toddler Halloween costumes that may not seem particularly seasonal, but look at how the simplicity of the design allows the pumpkin trick or treat basket to be the real star of the show.


Other Girls' Halloween Outfits

How about Belle from Beauty and The Beast? This is a great way to embrace the spirit of the Halloween season, while looking like a real princess.


Alice In Wonderland is another good choice. All those surreal creatures and adventures Alice encountered on her travels certainly wouldn't seem out of place at this time of year, but the look will appeal to younger tastes.

Everyone is happy!

Another costume that goes with the celebration but is completely non-scary is Daphne or Velmafrom Scooby Doo. (Yeah, it took me a short bit to see the link - then You pesky kids! brought all that ghost hunting back to me from my childhood TV memories!)

This is probably the easiest look to achieve - especially if your little girl doesn't like dressing up, because you don't actually need a dedicated costume. Really, any knee length summer dress will do. Why not add some funky tights with this outfit?

What I like about the Alice and Scooby Doo toddler Halloween costumes is that they are still in the spirit of Halloween, but they can be worn at any time of the year, as can Belle's dress.

Need to save money? Go to cheap Haloween costumes.
