2011 Hottest Kids Halloween Costumes; Cars 2, Smurfs, Kung Fu Panda 2 and More

Kids love to dress up for Halloween, especially if it's one of their favorite movie characters. This Halloween 2011 kids have hundreds of characters to choose from. A lot of great new movies have been released since last year, so parents get a little bit ahead of yourself and start checking out the costumes now.

Smurfs Movie Inspired Costume Ideas

With a new movie coming out in July, kids can enjoy the many character choices such as Papa smurf, Lazy smurf, Handy, Brainy, Clumsy, Hefty, Dreamy, Vanity, Jokey, Poet, Grouchy, Baker, Greedy, Snappy, and my favorite Smurfette. If your child doesn't want to be blue for Halloween, why not go as the mean Gargamel or his sidekick Azrael?

Do you need the mask, blue face paint, blue body paint, hats, gloves, shoes, Papa smurf's white beard, or Smurfette's blonde wig? Then all you need to do is go to bluebuddies.com . This website has everything you'll need to become the coolest smurf in town.

Kung Fu Panda 2

Pandas are back. But don't worry kids if you don't want to be a panda, you can be one of the new characters such as Wolf Boss, Gorilla, Soothsayer, or Lord Shen. How would you like to make your costume for under $15.00? In an article titled DIY Kung Fu Panda Halloween Costume, For Less Then $10 , it shows you how to put the outfit together without having to break the bank. And I also enjoy, how the article explains how to recycle and use items around your home rather than going out to a party store.

Gnomeo & Juliet

A gnome is an adorable idea for your little boy or girl. One the costume is cheap to make, and two super easy on the parents. For the boy costume you will need a red and white striped shirt, black pants, yellow suspenders, red hat, red booties, white beard, and white bushy eyebrows.

For the girl you will need a pink and white striped shirt, green skirt, yellow and pink suspenders, pink booties, pink hat, and flowers all over. To make the flowers buy white and yellow felt. Then place them on the skirt, shirt, hat, and even booties.
