It’s no secret that toddlers love Halloween. It’s the only time of year that they can dress up and get free candy from their neighbors. And yet, it’s the dressing up part that can be expensive for the parents. This is especially the case if you have more than one child in need of toddler Halloween costumes. Go to the wrong place and you could spend almost $100 for toddler Halloween costumes. That is why it is better to think of cheap costume ideas, where you spend little to no money. These ideas can include: clowns, princesses, ghosts and witches.

1. ClownA clown costume can be achieved by either putting a mask on the child or using makeup. The latter is a cheaper option. Simply put lipstick on the child’s mouth, (in a wild way), and on the child’s nose, (to make a clown nose). You can then get costume makeup to put white foundation on your child’s face. This should cost no more than $5.

2. PrincessWhen it comes to toddler Halloween costumes, a princess outfit is the easiest. Simply get a tiara, (which again shouldn’t cost that much), and put makeup on your child’s face. You can then put her in her Sunday best if you can’t afford a princess outfit. Just be careful that she doesn’t get candy on it. If this is a problem, don’t have the child eat the candy until she gets home and changes her clothes.

3. GhostAmong toddler Halloween costumes, the ghost costume is the most common. It is also the easiest to make. Simply take an old small sheet and cut holes for the eyes. You now have a very useful toddler Halloween costume that cost you nearly nothing to create.

4. Witch A witch is another toddler Halloween costume that is relatively easy to design. Simply put a black outfit on your child and put a witch nose on their face. You can also put a witch’s hat if your budget can afford it. It shouldn’t be too expensive anyway. Take a broom along too if you want to make your witch costume more realistic.

In conclusion, it’s not too hard creating affordable toddler Halloween costumes. With clown, princess, ghost and witch costumes, you have several options for making your child stand out this Halloween. However, keep in mind this word of caution. Don’t make your toddler Halloween costumes so scary that the child feels uncomfortable wearing it. Remember, toddlers are still very young children and they might have trouble distinguishing fantasy from reality. So, when designing your costumes, make sure to keep the scariness low-key.
