Baby’s First Halloween
A Memorable First Halloween for baby.
Is Halloween for babies? Pictures, albums and home video may be the only way children ever know they even participated in trick or treating as a baby. Who are we kidding? We all know the fun of baby’s first Halloween is for parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles and brothers and sisters.
Here are some suggestions for saving money on baby’s first trick or treat experience as well as safety tips to make the night as fun as it can be.
Be Frugal with Baby’s First Halloween Costume.
The first Halloween costume should be special, but that doesn’t mean it has to break the bank? Before you go crazy spending on baby’s Halloween outfit, try networking with other parents. Many parents save their own children’s first costimes. They may be open to swapping costumes with you or willing to sell their little one’s old costume at a minimal cost. If this isn’t an option for you and you find you need to purchase your baby’s costume, there are lots of options very cheaply online or at the big chail stores.
Safety tips to keep baby safe and sound
- Avoid Scary Masks and Costumes
Babies do not like to wear masks and most will fight and cry in discomfort if you put them in costumes that restrict their movements.
Don’t be surprised if older babies are frightened by other people’s masks and costumes as well. This is not time to instill fear into your baby. Sometimes adults and older children find it funny to show babies their costumes and do not realise that they can be genuinely scared.
- Keep Weather conditions in mind
When choosing your costume keep in mind what your weather will most likely be at that time of year.
- Give Family and Friends a call ahead before visiting
You want to share your baby’s first Halloween with family and a phone call ahead will ensure they are at home.Make your plans ahead. You don’t want to be disappointed later when trying to scrapbook your child’s first trick or treat experience and someone is missing.
Celebrate Baby’s First Halloween again and again
Just like every other first for your little one you will want to keep a record of the first Halloween, with pictures, video and other keepsakes. One way you can do this is by creating a scrapbook that will preserve these items for years to come. Get creative in how to layout your album. Don’t be afraid to take pictures with props that symbolize the holiday.
Memories are something that we all have, and with extra care and planning Halloween and your baby’s first trick or treat experience can be most memorable for everyone involved.
No matter what costume you choose or how you remember the day, keep the tips and suggestions above in mind for a safe, happy and fun Halloween
