What is Halloween?
Understandably infants of at least 3 months are unaware of Halloween. Halloween is the eve of All Saints' Day - an ancient tradition of the Celts when young people dress up in odd costumes (clothes and frightening masks) for the special day. Especially in the U.S, the Celtic festival of ghosts and spirits is a display of house to house visit by children. Before the host gifts them candies, they knock on your door and say 'trick or treat'!
The October 31st night displays funny and frightening costumes of ghosts, spirits, fairies, princesses, witches, monsters, fruits, vampires, etc. Adults often hold Halloween parties, and take that as the perfect reason to get drunk all night!

The batsman Halloween costume for baby boys is an evergreen design. The stories of the Batman amaze adults and teenagers as they try to imagine the supernatural feeling. So, allow them to enjoy the future memory of mimicking any terrific TV character by starting with the batsman.
Swatches of white and black fabrics can form a pair of wings with one-piece footed pajamas. Simply attach both wings between the underarms and waist. Polyester material is ideal to design the swatches for this costume because it stretches and keeps the baby warm. Batsman has eyes too; so, make a hood and cut holes for eyes after attaching with the back neckline.

Then, create a cap; attach it to the neckline of their costumes to form the top of a pumpkin. Don't forget to crop both feet of the pumpkin DIY costume. As they 'trick or treat' in their cribs, preserve this memory with a nice photoshoot.

Attach a matching cap (hood) to the neckline of the bodysuit. Get a strip of foam from an old mattress or couch and cut a long tail of triangular patterns. At least a meter long with zigzag edges; it should run from the forehead, along with the spine to the buttocks. Attach each pattern with a glue gun to the bodysuit. When babies rest on both feet and knees, it depicts a dragon with four limbs.
