A mummy costume is another great and easy-to-make option for Halloween: you just need to wrap the child in wide bandages and, if desired, apply red paint to some places.

If you have glowing or white paint in your arsenal, you can dress the child in a skeleton suit by drawing bones on the black clothes using a stencil.

A child can put on fangs on his teeth and draw a thin red line on the corner of his mouth (imitation of a drop of blood), as well as put on a black and white suit and get a simple and at the same time vivid image of a little vampire!

The kids spider catcher costume is suitable for both boys and girls. The outfit is not difficult to make yourself: it is enough to pick up a plain black clothing or a large piece of black fabric to make a cape and apply white lines of a web on it. The spiders, depicted on the previously drawn web, complete the image. Insects can be painted with paint or decorative spiders purchased in advance can be glued on.
