Bad Halloween Costumes for Toddlers

October 16, 2013 By Katy 11 Comments

Here’s a blast from the past. When my son was two we dressed him like Napoleon Dynamite. Yeah, we thought we were cool parents!

Poor kid. Worst Halloween costume for a toddler ever.

Thankfully, we let him out of the house to trick-or-treat as a caterpillar. And he was happy. And cute.

Have you made any questionable choices in Halloween costumes for you or your kids?

      There was a year that a lot of kids were the High School Musical characters and I had no idea who they were. I think I thought one was a hooker!

    Last year Benjamin didn’t want to dress up, so he ended up wearing the bottom of Henry’s dog costume and the top from his own mouse costume. I’m not sure if I even have pictures!

      Thanks, Rabia!

      And I really would have liked to see that half dog, half mouse costume. Er, maybe not.

    Well I loved Napoleon Dynamite! 🙂
    One year my daughter and son traded parts of their costume and he wore the witches long hair with his Star Wars costume and she had the head to whatever it was with a witch dress. It was pretty funny.

    I think the Napoleon costume is hilarious. I tried to get all my kids to dress up like Kiss, but they wouldn’t have it. Then I said, “I know. You dress as a police officer. You dress as an indian. You dress as a construction worker, and you dress as a Navy man.” They all thought that was a great idea until Punkin finally got it: “You are NOT dressing us like the Village People!”
    BWAHAHAHA! I was so busted.

      My kids wouldn’t know who the Village People are! Now I’m thinking of great brother-sister acts I could try and dress them like–Donny and Marie?!

      You know, this was a last-minute post and if I had given it my full attention, I probably would have embraced the greatness of this costume rather than throw it under the bus!
