Not all Halloween festivities can be participated in by toddlers. That does not mean, however, that toddlers have to be completely uninvolved in the fun. They are sure to want to wear their own Halloween costume, even if they are not able to go trick-or-treating.

Remember that toddlers tend to be sensitive to a lot of the scary sights of Halloween. Although older kids love the thought of terrifying their neighbors with gruesome or spooky costumes, toddlers could be really frightened by seeing such things. That means that parents need to make sure that their toddlers are well cared for while participating in Halloween events.

Toddlers and very small children usually have some kind of movie, book, or cartoon character that is especially treasured to them. Dressing up as this character could make Halloween a definite source of fun for such toddlers. Looking cute dressed up as their favorite cartoon character will appeal to toddlers much more than scaring people with ghost or vampire costumes.

There are some characters that seem to be rather timeless favorites of many toddlers. For example, Mickey Mouse, Scooby Doo, Superman, Spiderman, and Batman will always be popular with young kids. Your toddler, though, might have a different character in mind, depending on what happens to be popular at the moment.

Even if the costume itself is not of the highest quality, your toddler will love it if it allows them to become one of their favorite characters. That means that, in order to choose correctly, you need to pay attention to which characters really fascinate your children when you read them stories or when they watch television and movies.

Toddler costumes of popular characters are not difficult to find at all, both for sale and rent. The price of the costume will depend on its quality. You can find cheap plastic costumes as well tremendously detailed ones that are less cheap. While trying to decide which costume is best for your toddler, you also need to think about which costumes will be safest. Stay away from outfits that are flammable, for example.

Since candles are a common part of most Halloween decorations, being cautious when choosing a costume is in your best interests. You don't want to have to worry that your child might be in danger.

One word of warning about renting costumes for toddlers: If your child really loves the idea of dressing up as their favorite character, you might have an especially difficult time getting them to let you return the costume.
