Ten great Halloween costumes for babies

'Tis the season for everyone to don scary apparel - or, if you're a baby, super cute spooky looks. Via Pinterest, here are some great ideas for Halloween costumes for the youngest family members.

Charlie Brown

A little creepy? Maybe, but no more so than the CGI Charlie Brown from the new Peanuts movie.

Mandrake

I just put this one on here for the Harry Potter fans. Realistically, your kid is only going to sit in a pot for so long...but isn't it worth it for those 30 adorable seconds when she does?

The guy from Up

Walker optional.

R2-D2

A somewhat more sustainable idea for the Star Wars fans—though the trick will be getting those felt pieces to stay in place. You may need to bust out with the sewing machine for this one, because I'm thinking fabric glue ain't gonna cut it for li'l Squirmy McSquirmerson.

Narwhal

This one you have to buy on Etsy, but ISN'T IT WORTH IT?!

Mr. Peanut

Incredibly charming, and you can pair it with a shirt for a sibling that reads, "Produced in a facility that also processes peanuts."

Thing 1 and/or Thing 2, etc.

A low-effort solution, as long as you can find a baby-sized blue wig. Like New Orleans t-shirt retailers, you can also get creative regarding what kind of entity your kid is embodying. Deduction 1 and Deduction 2?

'80s baby

Might want to add an iron-on Journey logo so people don't keep asking if your baby is Richie Tenenbaum.

Baby Einstein

"We started listening to YourClassical every night, and this...just happened!"

Maggie's nemesis

You can figure this one out for yourself.

A new theory suggests that lullabies may confer an evolutionary advantage - and, in fact, that they may even be the basis of all music.
