Halloween
15 Toy Story Costumes Your Kids Can Show Off This Halloween
We all love Toy Story. Can the adults dress up too?
Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Rex, Mr. Potato Head, and the entire Toy Story gang have given us all a good deal of memories with our families. While your kids may already play dress-up with their favorite Toy Story costume around the house, Halloween is special. And it’s cool to show off something new in their neighborhood streets.
But, there are probably more costume varieties than you think. Especially because the story and characters evolved over the years. One example is Bo Peep. She began as a mysterious sweetheart with a southern accent, a princess-style dress, ruffled underpants, all topped with a dainty bonnet. By the fourth movie, she was the romping leader of stray toys, with pants, a cape, and scars to mark her rogue adventures.
Somehow the genius writers found a way for the Toy Story series to be just as relevant and heart-wrenching as it was when it first came out in 1995. So it’s OK to admit that you still love it just as much as your kids. Why not go ahead and get a costume for yourself and make it a family gig?
But Halloween is quickly approaching — you don’t want to drag your feet on finding the character your kids best identify with. Whether you have an infant, toddler, or big kid, one of these costumes is made with them in mind.

1Kid-Sized Bo Peep
OK, I love seeing the costumes of Bo after she went rogue! She started as the sweetest doll with a southern drawl, giving Woody the giggles as she’d walk away with her sheep. This adorable Party City costume can represent sweet Bo and the rough-and-tumble scrappy toy she became, who did what she had to do to survive. The skirt can be removed and worn as a cape. It even includes the armband that held her broken arm together. Your little girl will feel cute and strong at the same time. Sizes start at 2T and go up to a kids’ XL.
2Baby Woody
This baby Woody costume is the cutest thing ever! And it’s an easy slip-on one piece topped off with a Woody-style cowboy hat.

If your kid feels the same, then they will love this Toy Story kids Rex inflatable costume from Amazon. It’s 100% polyester and comes with a front zipper so they can easily put it on themselves. The space to see is through Rex’s mouth, where there’s a vinyl connector. There’s elastic at the ankles and wrists to hold the costume in place, and the built-in fan sits at the back of the right hip. One reviewer says it’s best for kids 8 and under, but another suggests that a small adult can wear it. Ultimately it depends on the size of the child (or adult).
