The moment October 1st rolled around, our kids have been talking nonstop about Halloween. And we can’t blame them. Halloween is the best. This year, we’re hoping to plan ahead on our costumes so we don’t rush to cobble together something at the last minute. So, we started scanning Pinterest for some awesome DIY costume inspiration. Some of these are just so adorable, we had to share. (You can find these on our Do512 Family Pinterest page, and we’ll be adding more as we find cute ones.)

DIY Halloween Costume Ideas for Kids:

Bull (or Longhorn) — This one’s listed as a Bull in a China Shop, but we’re thinking it would work great as a Texas Longhorn!
