One of the best times I've ever had was making Halloween costumes for my children, nieces and nephews. Finding something that was both safe, easy to put on and take off and within our limited budget wasn't all that easy to find.
For the most part infant costumes are relatively safe. A cotton sweat pea is not just comfortable, but also lacks potentially dangerous pieces that may either cover the face or have sharp edges. If your "baby" is walking, keeping him or her relegated to the stroller is just not going to work. Find a toddler costume that allows for free movement and does not block their eyesight. As you approach that first house, chances are your little angel will hurriedly reach for the door. This is when you find out if that toddler Halloween costume will be a trick or a treat.
TIP: Look for a costume that has room to wear clothing underneath! If the cool evening doesn't beg for extra clothing under that superhero, chances are your little one will eventually get tired of plastic pants and butterfly wings. Find a toddler costume that also allows for a jacket if necessary. If you need to remove the top or bottom of the infant costume, you can still continue on to your favorite Halloween party.
Here are a few tips to ensure that your favorite infant costume is safe for Halloween night. 1 - Review the mask. Make sure elastic bands are flexible and nothing obstructs vision. Want to avoid a mask altogether? Use face paint! 2 - Watch out for those flowing pants or sleeves. If the suit has long arms or legs, fell free to take the scissors to them. Shorten any long pieces to your liking. It's your toddler's costume; you can alter it however you need! Just remembering these simple tips will help avoid potential dangers.
Want the safest suit possible? Opt for a suit that has few pieces and no mask. Some cute toddler costume ideas include a monkey, doggy, kitty or princess. Use face paint instead of a mask and easily attach ears or a crown with either a headband or barrettes. A shortened monkey tail will also help avoid potential tripping. TIP: make sure your little prince or princess can easily get in and out of the suit. This makes bathroom breaks as simple as possible!
Infant Halloween costumes should have no small parts which may come loose and placed in a child's mouth while you aren't looking, nor should they have any type of heavy hood materials which might slip down over a child's face while they are placed in the rear of a car in the car seat.
Most store bought toddler Halloween costumes are relatively safe. Standards have been placed that require suits to be flame resistant. Double check just to be sure. Lighted jack o' lanterns are awfully pretty to new "trick or treaters." For your own pumpkins, use a glow stick instead of the standard candle.
Toddler Halloween costumes and infant Halloween costumes should be fun and interesting, not a hazard which may take what is a night of magic and fun to something far less than that. With a bit of care and inspection of what your child is wearing, your Halloween will be safe and fun for you and your child. Edited by Svetchey Sanorols
