ghost costume
Ghost

One of the classic home-made costumes, children love to dress up as a ghost, draped in an old white sheet with cutouts for arms and eyes. It helps to remember to cut out that all-important mouth to give access for those candies! This simple and quick outfit lends itself to some imaginative work with fabric paint, marker pens or lipstick to add facial features, and it's easy to accessorize with a treat bag made out of some trimmings or an old pillow case.

Ghosts don't always have to be pure white. You could use marker pens or sewn on patches to add some color or dots, or a short cloak tied around the neck in a
contrasting color such as black, purple or orange.

Grim Reaper

Harry Potter
Harry Potter is instantly recognisable by his glasses, which can easily be made out of a piece of black card and some careful use of sharp scissors. Paint on his scar with make-up. Wear a wizard's robe (see below) or put on jeans and a dark T-shirt and cover up with a long purple cloak. Don't forget the wand and broomstick!

Hippy costume
Hippy

Put on some flared jeans or sew some colorful scraps of fabric into the legs of an old pair. Add a tie-dye Tshirt or brightly coloured long flowing top, some flip flops or sandals, and a large necklace on a thong (print out a "peace" sign here and laminate). You could tie a colorful scarf around the forehead too, and add a wig of long hair if you like (although kids find wearing wigs for too long very uncomfortable and itchy!) A fringed waistcoat could be appropriate, and a pair of shades can be an extra accessory.

convict costume for kids
Jailbird

A stripy long-sleeved Tshirt, jeans and trainers is all you need for this costume.
Perhaps you could spell out "Cell Block H" or similar on the back of the shirt, or
wear a woolly hat or cap with your prisoner number on it.

James Bond
James Bond has to look cool! Slick back your hair, put on a smart pair of trousers, an old tie and perhaps an old jacket too. Add some gadget accessories and a badge with 007 on it, and you are ready to go!

Japanese Lady / Japanese Doll

Karate Kid

King
Make a gold crown out of card, cut into points and fitted to your child's head. Decorate with glitter, sequins and stick-on jewels. Dress in colourful clothes and add a cloak for grandeur - cut one out of fabric with pinking shears for speed, or make a more permanent - and grander - fabric cape. You could trim the top and leading edges with fake fur. I also like this idea for a more permanent fabric crown. NEW!
