7 Creative Halloween Costume Ideas from Dollar Tree

1. M&M. In the baby supplies aisle, you can often find an assortment of children’s and adults t-shirts in multiple colors. These are perfect for making your own costumes. Add the letter M to the front (felt works!) and you can be an M&M, or add a felt 1 or 2 to a red shirt and you are Dr. Seuss’s Thing One or Two.

2. Chef. Dress your child up as a chef with a Dollar Tree oven mitt and apron. You can make a simple chef’s hat out of piece of white poster board as well. Add a few cooking utensils in the pocket and you are all set.

3. Beautician. Raid the beauty supply aisle to make the perfect beautician. Add curlers to your child’s hair, put on an apron stocked with combs and brushes, and be sure to get some face make up.

4. Easy animals. The craft aisle will have sheets of colored foam perfect for fast animal costumes. You can cut the foam into ears and glue them to headbands. Finish the look with one of the plain colored shirts mentioned above. You can even glue foam accents to the shirt if you wish.

5. Mechanic. Grab an apron and hit up the car supply aisle for car care accessories to tuck into it. A solid blue shirt with the child’s name tag on it can help complete the look as can some of the toy cars for them to “work on.” Don’t forget to grab a work towel to tuck into their back pocket.

6. Vet. Use one of the solid shirts in white, some of the doctor tools in the toy section, and some stuffed animals to make the perfect vet. If you can find a pink tshirt, your child has the option of being Doc McStuffins!

7. Tooth fairy. Use some white craft foam to cut out a tooth shape and glue it to the end of a princess wand. Add some of the dress up wings and a bag full of fake coins and you have the perfect tooth fairy.
