  1. These are all good costumes. Anything Minecraft would be a hit with my grandchildren and I think that the Rick and Morty ones would be fun.

  2. Those are all great. I want the TRex costume to wear year round for the kids’ birthday parties. The Bob Ross one cracked me up. The Marvel ones are my favorites though.

  3. Those are really cool Halloween costumes and I think my daughter would love to wear the unicorn costumes instead of Wonder Woman costumes.

  4. I am so happy to read your post. I am still undecided on what to wear this Halloween and I just love your idea of Mavis from Hotel Transylvannia. Now, I am so excited and can’t wait to dress up. Thank you for sharing this.

  5. I love the T-Rex costume. That would bring so much fun whether it is Halloween or not. I am sure my kids would have a blast with it.
