October 31st is going to sneak up on us quickly here! Although we recognize that not all children get dressed up to trick or treat, in recent years it seems that many schools encourage the kids to dress up as their favorite storybook character for a day. So, here are a few fun suggestions from our readers to get your creative costuming juices flowing!

Great costume ideas! B has to dress up as a character for preschool and he chose Hooper Humperdink (by dr. seuss). I'm excited he thought of that and is being creative but that means I'm REALLY going to have to get creative myself. I'm trying to prepare him for nobody having read that book. =)
ReplyDeleteA couple years ago we did Little Bo Peep (old flower girl dress, bonnet, and a cane covered in ribbons), and the baby dressed as a sheep. This year we're doing Little Red Riding Hood and Little Miss Muffet.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE storybook character costumes! These are great!
ReplyDeleteI dressed my toddler up as Mrs. Wishy-Washy (book of the same name) when she was about a year old.
This year my daughter is going as Ladybug Girl. So cute!
