Trick or Treat on the Cheap

Trick or Treat on the Cheap

Trick or treat, Smell my feet
Give me something good to eat!

Halloween is just around the corner. I can imagine how the young ones are soooo looking forward to trick-or-treating, time when they can wear costumes, walk around the neighborhood and receive sweets… lots of sweets.

Worried about your budget? Don't be. Even if you cannot afford any of the costumes they have in the stores, your child/ren can still enjoy this holiday.

You can rummage in the attic and look for old clothes which you can use. Here are a few frugal halloween costume ideas from 20ishparents.

Or, you can release your inner-Martha Stewart and, with your child, make your own halloween costumes from things which you can find at home. Check out these sites for inspiration and ideas on what your child may want.

Playing dress up is what it is all about. Let your imagination fly as you and your child bond together over a DIY halloween costume.
