Halloween is the favorite holiday of many kids. They get to decorate the home with spooky creatures and of course, go trick-or-treating and eat lots of candy. This year, celebrate Halloween as a family and go trick-or-treating with your kids. There are a wide range of costumes to choose from such as kids costumes, baby Halloween costumes and coordinated costumes for moms and dads. Here are some ideas for family-style trick-or-treating to celebrate a fun Halloween.
Simple Tips to Remember
Choose a theme for the costumes that will be well-liked by both the kids and the adults. Ask grandmas, aunts and uncles if they can come along for trick-or-treating to turn Halloween into family fun time. After trick-or-treating gather the whole family together for snacks and delicious Halloween candy.
The children and grown-ups' costumes don't have to be identical, just coordinating. Choose kids costumes and baby Halloween costumes that are comfortable and warm as you will be outdoors while trick-or-treating. Make sure the costumes for grown-ups feature comfortable walking shoes as they will be doing a lot of walking and possibly carrying younger kids.
Halloween Costume Ideas
There are many themes you can choose from such as a pirate family. The whole family can dress up as a ship full of bloodthirsty pirates! Adorable baby Halloween costumes shaped like parrots are perfect for including the baby in the pirate family. Kids' pirate costumes are quite popular so your little one will love to dress up as a pint-sized pirate.
The family can also dress up as their favorite condiments. Salt and pepper shaker costumes and ketchup and mustard bottle costumes are great for the condiments theme. Dress baby as an adorable pickle so even the youngest member is a part of the Halloween celebration. If the extended family is joining in on the Halloween festivities, include jam and peanut butter jar costumes in this yummy theme.
Dressing up as your favorite superhero is a classic Halloween tradition that is in style for both kids and adults. The kids costumes can be easily put together at home with DIY capes and masks. Make props like the superhero's weapons from foam board so they are easy to carry around when you are trick-or-treating.
Have a spooktacular Halloween with these trick or treating ideas.
