Do you and your baby love the carrier? If so, here is how to make Halloween easy! For wee babies experiencing their first Halloween, I think the baby carrier costume is the most practical (that is if you leave the house). Your baby is cozy and snug against you. Not to mention, you have your hands free! Below you will find our absolute favorite baby Halloween costumes for carriers & slings.
Halloween Costumes with a Baby Sling
Truthfully, all of the costumes on our list will work perfectly for either the sling or carrier with small adaptions! However, we divided them up just to keep things simple! Below are a couple of our favorite sling babywearing costumes:
If You Give a Mouse Some Cheese
Calling all cheeseheads! This is the costume for you, not to mention dressing up as a mouse and cheese is about as simple as it gets.
Bee & Beekeeper Baby Halloween Costume
Pop this precious bee headband on your little one, then put on your beekeeper gear and you’ve got an adorable costume that your baby can be comfortable right in their sling for.
A Hershey’s French Kiss
Get it? A French… kiss? We absolutely adore this costume. Click here for an adorable Hershey’s Kiss costume (you could DIY it, but if you’re like me, just add it to the cart!).
A Bank Robber & Her Cash Baby Halloween Costume
Put on the cutest burglar costume you can find then plop your baby in their sling with a couple of dollar bills (Monopoly Money recommended) and you will look like a burglar on the run! Bonus points if you attach some bills to your baby’s hat.
Halloween Costumes with a Baby Carrier
Popcorn
Now for one of the most popular babywearing costumes of all time. Kate, from This Place Is Now A Home, made a white and red striped popcorn container out of felt and simply wrapped it around her baby carrier. But the best part of the costume? She attached real popcorn to her son’s cap!
The Hangover
Just like the characters from the movie The Hangover… only cuter! To recreate this costume have dad play Zach Galifianakis carrying your baby in the carrier donned with sunglasses. Mom can play any one of the other leading characters! This costume guarantees a million laughs.
Total Recall (Kuato & George)
Nothing gets Daddy to carry the baby for Halloween like a costume inspired by a classic Schwarzenegger movie’s mutant death scene, right? Bonus, it’s comfy for parent and child!
Flower pot and gardener
Within the span of a few naptimes, you can pull off this costume and amaze your friends. Jess Gonzalez provides instructions on instructables.
For the less creative mamas, a simple flower crown and gardening hat will do!
Lobster in a pot
Technically, this baby is in a carrier, albeit a thoroughly impractical one. Fantastically cute from our friends at Parents Resources and More.
