With COVID-19, you might find yourself at the end of October with not much planned for Halloween, including your child’s annual costume. Don’t be too hard on yourself, though – many parents are finding themselves in the same position in 2020. Even if your child just had a change of heart about their initial Halloween attire, which happens quite frequently, there’s a way to overcome any last-minute plans or changes – and that’s by opting for an easy, homemade costume option. Below, you’ll find 3 totally do-able, totally adorable Halloween costumes for your kiddo that require little time or supplies.
