The spooky season is creeping up fast, and what better way to celebrate than with a family themed costume? From classic characters to easy DIY creations, Halloween is the perfect excuse to get everyone involved for a day of fun and fright! Plus, it’s a great way to connect with the community and make memories that’ll last long after the lollies are gone. Need some inspiration? Here are some fun, easy ideas to get those creative juices flowing!
Scooby-Doo and the Gang - Get the entire family (even the pets) into the Halloween spirit with a Scooby-Doo themed costume. Each family member can become a member from the gang - Daphne, Fred, Velma, Shaggy and of course Scooby!
Skeleton Family - For a spooky yet simple costume, skeletons are a classic, easy-to-assemble option. Grab matching skeleton onesies or black clothes and DIY some skeletal designs. Bonus points for skeleton-shaped candy bags—just don't lose any bones along the way!
Wizard of Oz - Follow the yellow brick road to some seriously fun costumes! With so many iconic characters to choose from—Dorothy, the Scarecrow, the Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion, or even the Wicked Witch—your family will be the talk of the Emerald City (or at least your street!). These colourful, timeless costumes are a hit with kids and adults alike.
Pack of Crayons - Looking for a costume that's simple, creative and colourful? Why not try a crayon costume! Each member of the family gets to pick their favourite colour to wear and all you need is a shirt, pants and socks of your chosen colour. Plus some electrical tape or a pen to create the crayon’s distinct design. Complete the look with a hat made out of matching paper or a party hat and voilà—you’re a walking box of fun! Easy, colourful, and guaranteed to bring smiles wherever you go.
Space Family - Blast off into Halloween as astronauts or aliens! Think shiny, metallic outfits paired with space helmets or decked-out bike helmets for that futuristic, outer-space vibe.
