Unique Baby Halloween Costume
Choosing a Unique Baby Halloween Costume
Dressing a baby for Halloween can be great fun for every
parent, but finding a truly unique baby Halloween
costume can sometimes be a bit of a challenge. Most of
the ready-made costumes for babies tend to be the same
type of things – cute animals like puppies and cows,
bright orange pumpkin suits, licensed characters like
Pikachu from Pokemon or Simba from The Lion King and
other things of that nature. In fact, to be truly unique
with a baby’s Halloween costume, one usually has to
resort to making the costume oneself. This can also
present a challenge as it will probably require some
specific sewing ability or, at the very least, some very
careful selection of materials because a baby’s skin is
so much more delicate than that of an older child or an
adult.
Deciding upon a truly unique baby Halloween costume is
the most difficult part of the task. The adage that says
there is nothing new under the sun is very correct and
anything that you can possibly think of has probably
been done before. The real trick is in finding a new way
to do it or in choosing something that is not done very
often, if at all. One couple dressed their baby in a
tiny convict’s outfit, stuck a plast6ic Tommy Gun in the
child’s stroller and told everyone the infant was
actually George “Baby Face” Nelson, the notorious bank
robber from the nineteen thirties. This was a very
unique baby Halloween costume.
Another couple had a similar idea for their twin babies.
They dressed the infants in a three piece suit and a
sundress (these were a brother and sister set of
fraternal twins), also gave the babies plastic guns, and
said that they were Bonnie and Clyde. Not all baby
Halloween ideas have to involve firearms, of course,
these are just two good examples of people who were
thinking a little differently for their baby’s Halloween
outfits.
The most unique ideas for a baby’s costume are made
unique because they are not the sort of outfit that one
would expect to see on a baby. Everybody coos over the
baby dressed as a puppy, pumpkin, or cow, but none of
those costumes are anything we haven’t seen in the past.
A baby in a baseball uniform with a plastic bat and a
play hypodermic needle going as Jose Canseco, however,
is a truly unique baby Halloween costume idea. Try to
think of things like this when planning your baby’s
costume if you really want to come up with something
that is different than what all the other parents are
doing. You’ll find it’s easier than you think.
By thinking “outside the box” as they say, you can come
up with something very different to use for your baby’s
first Halloween. All it takes is a bit of creativity and
a good sense of humor to come up with a unique baby
Halloween costume idea.
