Magical Kids’ Costumes That Won’t Break the Bank
It’s that time of year again — school hallways, community centers and your very own neighborhood will soon be overrun by Halloween creatures on the hunt for sweets. Make sure your little one is ready for the revelry with a magical costume that won’t set you back a bucket full of cash.
Witch
Witches don’t need to be particularly scary. All you need to successfully land this look is a pointy black hat, a broom and a large button-down cardigan worn over the shoulders like a cape. Black cat optional.
Wizard
Want to get extra use out of that witch hat? Grab a stick wand and slap on a wizened old man mask. Finish the look with a large black sweatshirt and your child will easily pass as a practical 21st century Gandalf.
Star Children
Escape the ordinary with something out of this world. All you really need for a star child costume is a yard or so of raw sequined fabric. Pin it around the shoulders as a cape, drape it over your head and finish with some heart-shaped sunglasses for a shimmery costume with star power.
Unicorn
Do you believe in magic? Everyone’s favorite cryptozoological pony is the costume of 2018 — grab a headband and a tutu skirt, paste on some face sequins and biodegradable glitter and wear as many colors as you can for a truly unique unicorn creation.
