Halloween Costumes for Toddler Twins

Your twins will make a cute "package" in this familiar brown uniform. When my twins were toddlers, they were fascinated by the big brown trucks and the friendly man who rang the doorbell and left "surprises" on our doorstep. Costumes like this help toddlers explore their dreams about what they'll be when they grow up. Other ideas: fireman, doctor, nurse, policeman, construction worker.

Who wants their toddler to burst into tears at the sight of their twin dressed in a scary costume? Go for cute characters instead, like this striped witch. Sparkles and flounces adorn a one-piece dress. Velcro closure makes it easy to dress toddlers. Includes matching hat.

Hello Kitty is popular with all ages. Frankly, my teen twins still "oooh and ahhh" over Hello Kitty goodies. So what could be cuter than this sweet pink and white costume for toddlers? White pants have an elastic waist, while the pink satin top has plush sleeves and ties around the neck. Separate headpiece sports the familiar face of the whimsical character.

Sometimes they're angels, sometimes they're lil' devils. Take your pick from these cute angel and devil costumes for toddlers. Handsome devil is bright red plush with detachable (Velcro) black wings and tail. Separate hood has soft horns. Angel is sweet in a shimmery satin gown with fur trim. Halo headband, wings and booties are included.

Arrrr, mateys! Pirates are a perennial favorite, and can be appropriate for a wide variety of toddler personalities. Go daring or dainty, fearsome or friendly by adding the accessories of your choice.

Cute and cuddly animal costumes are fine for baby twins, but toddlers are looking for something a bit more exotic. Think turtles, tigers, and bold zigzag stripes like this zebra character. Styled like a stuffed animal, the costume will appeal to your toddler twins' taste for texture. Costume includes a plush jumpsuit, separate headpiece, mittens and foot covers.

Colorful character Blue has been a friend to toddlers for years, enlisting their help in solving mysteries on the popular program Blue's Clues. For toddler twins who wish to emulate a favorite television personality, Blue is a great choice. I particularly like this costume (pictured here) which includes a bodysuit and a separate foam hood, as well as paw print mitts. In addition, toddlers can play along with Blue with the three detachable paw prints, their very own "Blue's clues." But click the "Compare Prices" link above for many different varieties, including a plush jumpsuit with attached hood, or a vest style.

Dora is a character from another television program popular with toddlers. She appeals to toddlers' love of exploring as she finds her way to new places and people. With her sidekick, Boots, and pal, Diego, she teaches viewers Spanish words along the way.

Perhaps the most beloved television programs of all times is Sesame Street, and the show is full of characters perfect for toddler twins. Shown here is Cookie Monster, a warm and cozy plush jumpsuit costume. Also consider bright red Elmo, a traditional favorite for many years, as well as a relatively new character, Abby Cadabby, who will have particular appeal for girl toddlers with her sparkly wings, purple hair and magic wand.
