While Halloween can be tons of fun, it can also be a little overwhelming for the small ones! We figured out that when our kiddos are too shy to attempt the "trick or treat" on their own, having Mom or Dad dressed up with them changes everything. Maybe they just like seeing us look silly? :) In any event, here are some fantastic ideas for costumes with your little one!

My favorites are when mom's costume doesn't require much work...am I right? And that umbrella cloud is so magical!

I'd be completely comfortable leaving baby Nemo with this dentist and Darla ;).

I'm pretty sure Star Wars will never not be cool.

This automatically made the think of the PBS version my kids love: "Be a good little monkey!"

And this Ratatouille is my new favorite! Look at that little mouse!!

Do you ever dress up with your kids? I'd love to hear new ideas!
