As Halloween draws near, I’m sure your kids have told you a handful of things they want to be. I feel like one week kids want to be one thing, and then the next, they want to be another. But if they (you) are needing help figuring out what they should be, I rounded up a few different Halloween costume ideas for kids. And the best part, they don’t require sewing, glueing or measuring. It’s an add-to-cart-and-done type of deal. And all the mamas said, “Amen!”
