Okay, so I know Halloween is not until the end of next month, but if you operate like the list mom, you are already thinking about and purchasing the kid’s Halloween costumes.

There are a couple reasons why I purchase the kids Halloween costumes early to mid-September. First of all, costume prices are average right now but the closer it gets to Halloween, the higher they jack up the prices. This is not true for all costumes but I find it to be true for most, especially the popular costumes.

Also, if you want to avoid the scenario where you go online just to find out the costume your kid “has to have” is sold out, then save yourself the trouble and just order now. The easy, “order online I will get it tomorrow,” turns into calling every store in the area seeing if they have this costume in stock. Sound familiar?

That ends up costing you not only more time but money as well. Staying ahead of the game is essential to reducing stress and managing your time properly. With that said, why not just order your costumes now to avoid the headache!

The other “not so fun” part is researching for kids Halloween costumes. Unless your child is old enough to tell you exactly what he/she wants, you could be researching costumes for hours, OR you run into the situation where your kid just doesn’t know what he/she wants to be and you just want to be able to throw out some ideas and have them pick one.

I have compiled a list of the most popular kids Halloween costumes for 2019. The research has been done for you so you do not have to do anything. I have narrowed it down to the top 20 Halloween costumes for girls and the top 20 Halloween costumes for boys. All you have to do is click on the images below to order!

Either way, your kids will have such fond memories of Halloween for years to come. I still remember all my Halloween costumes I wore every year. Then there is the excitement with dressing up, running door to door and of course, getting candy.

I have memories of all my brothers, sisters, cousins and me laying out all of our Halloween candy. We would organize all of our candy by type and then trade the candy that we had too many of, or candy that we didn’t particularly like.

All the kids stayed up late, drank hot apple cider and ate warm pumpkin pie. We would eat the roasted pumpkin seeds straight from the oven. Every time I smell warm apple cider, the memories start flooding in.

As a parent, I want my kids to feel proud in their costume, remember their childhood memories and just have the best day. A day they will remember for the rest of their lives!

Happy Halloween!
