Halloween Costume Ideas

This will be my last Halloween post for the year, but I just had to share a couple of great costume idea sites before returning this blog to its regularly scheduled cat-related programming.

Kids’ Turn Central provides a list of unique Halloween costumes with brief instructions. Costumes include bookworm, cheese sandwich, shower, and plenty of other creative ideas. There are also concept costumes such as ceiling fan, which involves dressing up like a sports fan and carrying a sign that says “Go Ceiling!” The site also has lists of classic Halloween costumes, animal and insect costumes, people and character costumes, and family and couple costume ideas.

Another Halloween costume idea page on the FamilyFun site provides a list of costumes ranging from retro robot to sunflower to bug attack. The site helpfully arranges costume ideas by category – costumes for older children or adults, costumes for very young children, multi-part family costumes, unique costumes, and costumes that can be thrown together at the last minute. For those with a talent for crafts, lists of required supplies, pictures, and detailed instructions are provided for making the costumes from scratch.

Have a safe and happy Halloween, and remember to keep your kitties indoors until at least a week afterward. People may still be tossing leftover fireworks around for days, so it’s very dangerous for cats to be outside not only on Halloween night, but for some time afterward as well.
