Halloween Costumes You Shouldn’t Dress Your Children In

[Editor's Note: Jimmy's sister, Gloria Fallon, is back again! A few Halloween's ago she showed us Halloween Costumes For People Who Hate Their Kids and now she's back with more advice for how not dress your children this spooktacular holiday. Check out her other posts like Growing Up Fallon and our complete Growing Up Fallon gallery!]

There are plenty of ways to look like an idiot on Halloween, but there’s no excuse for making your kid look like an idiot too. Here are some costumes that will land your child in therapy some day, so avoid them if you can:


#1: Whac-A-Mole

Fun costume if your kid doesn’t mind getting punched in the chest and whacked on the head all day.


#2: Psycho Clown

So I give him candy, and he gives me nightmares for a month. Yeah, trick-or-f*cking-treat to you too.


#3 Velma

Because every little girl wants to be the unattractive third wheel in the group.


#4: Mini-Me

Hey kid, hope you like posing like that with your pinky finger, because once you drop your hand, it looks like you’re going trick-or-treating dressed as “Cement.”


#5: Flapper

Because toddlers love to reminisce about the Roaring 20s.


#6: Dora the Explorer

And her costume is where? This is a kid wearing shorts, a t-shirt and a backpack. So basically her parents paid $24.99 for her to go to school dressed like a 5-yr-old girl.


#7: Smurf

Yeah, might as well dress him up like Daphne from Scooby Doo.


#8: Ahsoka

Who the hell is Ahsoka? Even if your toddler is a huge Ahsoka fan, I doubt it’ll be enough to make her want to wear this headgear.


#9: Munchkin

Show me the child who wants to wear this costume, and I’ll show you a future pedophile.


#10: Renaissance Peasant Boy

???


#11: Tin Girl

Mail Carrier, Fireperson—fine, fine. But “Tin Girl”? Sorry. This costume has it all wrong. The Tin Man was a man made of tin who didn’t have a heart, not a girl in a dress covered in hearts.


#12: Roadkill

This is wrong on so many levels. Having your child tell people “I’m Roadkill” is just one of them.


#13: Chef

I think a chef’s hat might be a better prop than this fake pizza.


#14: Rubik’s Cube

The height of this unfortunate costume makes me think “D*ck in a Rubik’s Cube.”


#15: Ghost

Expect rocks.
