Halloween Costume Ideas b/g

We are doing a cheerleader and a football player this year thanks to my brother purchasing the kids the most outragously priced USC cheer outfit and football jersey for their birthday! LOL

But other ones off the top of my head:
M&Ms
Thing 1 and Thing 2
Bee and Ladybug
Jack and Jill
Raggedy Ann and Andy
Two Peas in a Pod
Mickey and Minnie
Pebbles and Bam Bam

 

Donald Duck and Daisy
Dora and Diego
Peanutbutter and jelly (one is a slice of bread and PB and the other is a slice of bread with jelly)

 

Mine were Hansel and Gretl last year. I would love to do Raggedy Ann and Andy too. I think this year we may be Thing 1 and Thing 2 b/c it's easy and I have red footed pjs!

 

I love the idea of Raggedy Ann and Andy or Mickey and Minnie. I haven't started thinking about this yet. You ladies are on top of it.

 

The twins were Eeyore and Winnie the Pooh last year. This year I'm considering Elmo and Cookie monster or the Backyardigans.

I'm actually hunting for a knight in shining armor costume for a 12-18mo. My idea is to do a princess and knight in shining armor (I remember seeing someone else's B/G toddlers last year in them and thought it was ADORABLE), but I can't find the knight costume!!!!! If anyone sees one, please let me know!!!

We're doing Pebbles and Bam-Bam. My youngest is probably going to be dino if I can come up w/a way to make an outfit for him. Any ideas on how to make the dino portion?

 

Great topic- we are currently looking for our theme.

 

YEAAAA I am so glad you posted this!! I have been wanting to post something about Halloween. I have already started racking my brain for ideas for this year. Keep the ideas coming. I have g/g twins and I thought about doing Minnie Mouse and Daisy Duck but I can not find a toddler Daisy Duck costume. Anyone have any ideas? My girls love Mickey Mouse clubhouse.

 

I thought if I had b/g that the Wonder Twins would be cute. I am thinking this year, with all boys, that the little ones might be thing 1 and thing 1 and the oldest might be cat in the hat. Or they could all 3 be different superheros...superman, batman and spiderman. I know, very creative.


bethann - my aunt one year made a great dino costume. There has to be a pattern somewhere. Have you looked for one? I know she used a store bought one.

 

Tinkerbell & PeterPan, I think we might do this although my dh was against it last year.

 

My 2 boys were winnie the pooh and hunni pot last year. (Maybe hunni pot more likely for a girl, but my little boy is a sweety and loves honey!) They were thing 1 and thing 2 the year before.
We definitely need some more ideas for this year.

 

We did thing 1 and thing 2 last year and DH was the cat in the hat. It was the best costume and we got tons of compliments! I'm looking for another great idea this year.

 

First year they were a princess and a dragon.
Second year they were a cowboy and an Indian.

 

Mine were an angel and a devil last year.

 

My neighbor with triplets dressed her kids as "See No Evil", "Hear No Evil", "Speak No Evil". I didn't get to see it but it sounded very cute. I'm not nearly that creative . Last year both my twins were dinosaurs (cute costumes I came across at a consignment shop). The first year they were Care Bears (one pink, one blue).

 

last year my DD was a Philadelphia Eagles Cheerleader and DS was a Steelers football player (you can tell the rivalry in MY house :laughing: ) I have no idea what to do this year...

oh if you're looking for the knight costume you may find in at one step ahead dot com

 

Mine are both girls but they are probably going as Peter Pan and Tinkerbell. I like this choice because it will be fairly easy to do. I think that's a cute boy/girl combo costume.

 

I'm thinking of Little miss muffet and a spider for my b/g twins

Pottery Barn Kids also has the knight costume.
What about salt and pepper shakers
Coke and popcorn

Mine were peas in a pod their first year and last year we were Monkey See, Monkey Do. I put a brown with pink Polka dotted bow on Zoe's monkey ear so they knew she was a girl. If anyone needs monkey costumes let me know! 18 month sized!

My FIL was in Switzerland and brought back a dirndel and leiderhosen (sp - sorry!!!) for Catherine and Andrew. So they wore those!

 

Somewhere around here....and I hope I haven't lost it.....my sister gave me a costume her son used when he was about mine's age & it's a crocodile, but it looks like it could also be a dragon. So, I thought it'd be cute to have DS in the dragon costume & dress DD up as a princess.

 

Love all these ideas! I'm debating doing Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia again for the 3rd year in a row. How long will I be able to dress them the way *I* want to?! LOL And of course, DH and I are Darth Vader and Queen Amidala!
