Halloween Costume Ideas for Kids and Adults

We have SO much fun when it comes to finding our costumes for Halloween each year, that we thought we'd create an article of ideas to help you choose as a family. 

We have included baby & toddler costumes, kids Halloween costumes, couples Halloween costumes, and, we can't forget our little four-legged friends, dog Halloween costumes too! 

Plus, if, like us, you have a child or children who are sensitive to the feel of costumes, or they are not sure about the look of them, we have ideas for that too - Super simple ideas for them to join in too. 

Here are some quick and easy costumes, face painting ideas and accessories to make you look spooooooooktacular!

Minecraft Steve - Sensory Edition 

If your child loves Steve, but doesn't wish to cover their face with a mask, beard or wig, then we suggest you find a blue t-shirt/jumper and pair of blue jeans (or soft leggings if that is better for them) and purchase the Pickaxe to complete the look.
