How Do You Find The Right Halloween Costume For A Child?
Children love Halloween for two reasons, candy and costumes. While the candy may be out of your control, the costume is not. Here’s how to find a great costume for your child. Talk to your child about what they would really like to be for Halloween. Be sure to get a few ideas. Knowing what they like will reduce the chances of a meltdown on Halloween when it comes to putting the costume on. Consider the weather in your area for late October. If your area is typically cold, it is a good idea to adjust the costume accordingly. The same goes for hot weather climates. Be sure that your child’s costume includes comfortable shoes. Decorate sneakers as an alternative to fancy high heals and other uncomfortable shoes. If you are looking to purchase an inexpensive costume, eBay is an excellent place to find used costumes. Typically these are only worn once and are in very good condition. Another option is to go costume shopping a week or so before Halloween when stores are desperate to sell out.
