    some great tips here, thanks for sharing. My grandchildren are nuts about Halloween and love getting dressed up for it – and although all under 6 know exactly what they want to be. :-)

  2. Thanks for this easy guide. We don’t have much money for costumes this year, so being able to gather stuff on hand is a huge help to create a great costume.
