Halloween is a fun holiday for kids and adults. It’s an opportunity to get creative with costumes, and there are many options for children and adults alike. One of the best parts about Halloween is that you can dress up as your favorite character no matter what their age or gender. Here are some most popular kids costumes right now:
Star Wars
Some popular characters can easily be transformed into costumes for the little Star Wars fan in your life. Yoda, Darth Vader and Stormtrooper are all well-known series characters that can be made with a couple of well-placed accessories. For younger kids, consider making them an Ewok costume instead. These adorable teddy bears have been featured in every Star Wars film and are easy enough to create on your own at home!
Superheroes
It’s easy to see why superheroes are such a popular choice. They have super strength, fast reflexes and the ability to fly. In contrast, most of us can’t even fly on an airplane. Aspirational? Yes. But not only that: superheroes are relatable as well! Just think about your childhood—do you remember playing dress up in your parents’ clothes or pretending to be Superman? It’s no wonder kids love dressing up as their favorite hero for Halloween or any other occasion!
Pirates
If your child is a fan of the high seas, don’t forget to check out our collection of pirate costumes for boys and girls. With options including an eye patch and a hook hand, you’re sure to find something that will appeal to both genders. In addition to accessories like these, many pirate costumes come with swords or other weapons to help them fight off any oncoming threats from the sea.
To get started, consider what kind of look you want your child’s costume to have: Is this going to be more like Captain Jack Sparrow? Will he be more interested in being like Johnny Depp in Pirates of the Caribbean? Once you’ve figured out what type of pirate look you want them to wear, it’s time for accessories!
Princess
Princess costumes are popular with girls and make an excellent choice for Halloween or any other costume party. They’re available in various styles, colors and sizes, so you can find one that fits your child’s personality. For example, there are princess costumes for toddlers, preschoolers and older children, and Disney princess options for teens.
Princess costumes come in many different styles, including formal ballgowns and simpler blue dresses with gold trim that would be perfect for a “soiree” themed party. You’ll also find many different accessories, including tiaras, wands, crowns and shoes.
Barbie/Dolls
Barbie is a popular costume choice for girls, and it’s no surprise why: Barbie has been the most popular Halloween costume in the US since 2009! Barbie has also been a top choice in the UK since 2000. Suppose you have a little girl who loves playing with her Barbies and dressing them up in different outfits. In that case, this could be an easy way to go about picking out her favorite dress-up clothes for Halloween night or any other occasion when she wants to dress up as something special. You can take a look at Smiffy’s to find a beautiful barbie outfit.
These are just a few of the most popular costumes for kids this year. There are many other options, but these should give you an excellent place to start when deciding what costume is right for your child.
