3 simple Halloween costumes for kids when you're too lazy

Is your child asking you for a costume for the most boring party of the year? Don’t panic, we will equip you for next to nothing.

Halloween really isn’t for you. Or maybe yes, after all we don’t know each other. But for your son, from generation… Z? W? I don’t know anymore, I’ve lost count, however for your child born after 2015 Halloween is THE event of the year. Because we can eat candy even when it’s not even a birthday, because we play at scaring each other, and above all because we can dress up in anything and not worry, no matter what.

But whoever says disguise, says disguise. Yes, I know, it’s relentlessly logical. But what do you do when you’re a parent too lazy to sew anything worthy of the name, or when you don’t want to, or can’t, spend the budget on something made in China, or when we have the makeup skills of an otter on ecstasy? Well, let’s read Madmoizelle and take notes.

1 – The ghost’s disguise, the safe bet

First disguise, the simplest: the ghost. To achieve this, you just need to find a old blank sheet, and place it on the head of your dear cherub. Once you center the paper on top of his head, ask him to close his eyes and draw two circles with a marker where his eyes are.

Then remove the sheet, find the scissors that cut (better) or a cutter if you don’t have two left hands like me and can handle this kind of object without necessarily ending up in the emergency room, and quickly, make two small holes.

It’s done ? WELL There, your costume is readyyou just need to attach it to your child’s head and roll away, let’s go have a big party.

2 – The Minions disguise, the most recycled

Do you know the Minions? But yes, these little yellow things with voices StrangeGru’s friends in the animated film Despicable Me… Well, the Minions were so successful that they even had their own movie, much to the despair of many parents.

Well, if your child laughs and says ” Bananaaaa » and he loves making farting noises with his mouth, why? don’t dress him up as a Minion? To do this, nothing simpler if you have an outfit at home: denim overalls, a yellow t-shirt underneath and a big pair of fake glasses. That’s all! Don’t thank me, it’s a pleasure.

3 – The most hygienic mummy costume

If you are no longer inspired by the previous two costumes, how about good old mummy costume? For this, nothing could be simpler: either you have old plasters for sprains and strains around, and you wrap your whole baby in it, or cut strips from an old sheetand you do the same thing.

Let him do the same an opening for the eyes, nose and mouthit would be stupid for the heir to pass the weapon to the left because he forgot to let it ventilate.

Oh, and don’t forget to wear a white t-shirt underneath, so it’s more opaque! Next, ask your child to walk the same way he gets up in the morning on school days and jump, that’s all!
