Great kids Halloween costumes are a bit subjective – it depends whose point of view you’re looking at them from. As a parent, a great costume and kids makeup is one that’s safe and appropriate for the children’s age.

Finding a happy medium is the best way to go, but whatever you do be sure to get the child to take part in the choice. Just be sure to give them some guidelines so they understand what you will or won’t allow.

Kids won’t enjoy Halloween if they’re forced to wear a costume they don’t like. It’s sometimes hard to accept, but resign yourself to the fact that as a parent, your top choice is probably not the coolest in the eyes of your kids!
