Royal Prince Child Halloween Costume includes: Shirt, pants and belt. Size 4-6 Small


Max out your costume. Whatever your costume idea is, be sure to max it out. Make sure that you are wearing something on your feet, your head and that you are carrying something. Get all of the details right. If you bought your costume -- do something to make the costume original and unique. Combine it with something that will make it special and totally "max" it out in a way where if someone else shows up in that exact costume -- you'll have to win.

Play up your best points. Have you ever been told you look like a celebrity? Do you have good legs? Are you funny? Match your Halloween costume to both your physical looks and also to your personality. The judges are going to watch how you act in your costume and what you look like in it. Someone that looks so much like Elvis or Marilyn Monroe is going to have a much better chance of winning than someone who simply doesn't. You want each detail of your costume to get positive attention.

Come up with several ideas for your Halloween costume. Some people get caught up in only one idea for their Halloween costume. Think of several ideas that might work for you. Your second idea could be even better than your first. If you have taken belly dance lessons and you go as a belly dancer -- that would be an ideal costume for you. Much better than dressing up in something else this year. Stretching yourself to come up with several ideas will encourage you to think outside of the box and come up with ideas that could really work for you.

Read the rules of the contest carefully. Some contests don't let homemade costumes in. Others don't let people under a certain age in. Others want only a specific type of costume. To win the Halloween costume contest you must follow the rules. Reading the rules carefully will be sure that you are planning the very best Halloween costume for a successful win.

Be funny, original and express yourself! The biggest secret to a Halloween costume is coming up with something that makes the judges notice you. Whether your costume is very scary, very sexy, very funny or simply very original -- your costume must be very something! Express an opinion with your costume and dare to be different.

Each holiday season, families across the nation send Christmas cards, search for stocking-shaped cookie cutters and line up to see Santa at the mall-all in the name of holiday traditions.

While these cherished activities never go out of style, it can be fun to mix up your family's traditions to give a chic, modern twist to your classic Christmas cards, carols and cookies. Read on for some great tips for updating your family's parties, dcor and Christmas cards this year.

The first step in modernizing traditional holiday activities involves redefining your family's style-have your children outgrown visits with Santa and the parade of cartoon characters you've traditionally had on your Christmas cards?

Schedule a shoot with a photographer at the beach, on the slopes or in the botanical gardens this year and opt for a sleek and stylish photo Christmas card instead. You could even encourage your teenagers to send their own cool, personalized Christmas cards to their groups of friends to save them the utter embarrassment of sending a family photo on a Christmas card to their peers.

Another fun way to jazz up your jolly holiday traditions is by turning your classic activities into fun holiday parties! Send Christmas cards or invitations to all your friends as a way to organize a caroling party or a cookie decorating party. If you have exceptionally talented friends and family members, you can invite them over for a holiday decorating party and let them deck the halls with you. Or, you can even host a Christmas card decorating party for younger kids and craft-loving parents alike!

No matter what your family's holiday traditions are, it's important to let them evolve as your family grows and changes-otherwise, you might end up with the same cartoons on your Christmas cards year after year! 'Tis the season to showcase your style, so have some fun and give your celebration a fun, modern twist.

Nicktoons - Halloween - Tales of Fright

Our story is about a cute little pumpkin named Reggie. He can't wait to go to the jack-o-lantern auditions and play pumpkin games at the seasonal patch parties. However, in pumpkin society you either qualify to become a jack-o-lantern or you are kicked out of the patch and made into pie by the Bakerman. The Bakerman never makes pies out of jack-o-lanterns, but he has a big pie order to fill and now all pumpkins are up for grabs, especially Reggie. Reggie's courage unites the pie pumpkins and jack-o-lanterns to join together to defeat the Bakerman. The jack-o-lanterns finally realize the big or small, scary or not, they were all the same. And from now on all pumpkins will be Holiday jack-o-lanterns and treated as equals, thanks to Reggie.

A Read-A-Long DVD Picture Book Volume 1
Your choice of female or male narrator, with on screen story text so kids can read along, highly detailed and colorful 3D computer generated illustrations, picture gallery with musical track, and computer animated intro, for all ages.
Customer Review: A wonderful seasonal collection!
I love this DVD as I am quite the connoisseur of Halloween specials; I can't get enough of them! Hey Arnold's 'Arnold's Halloween' strikes the jackpot with its War of the Worlds inspired storyline; it's sufficiantly moody and fun. Rugrats' 'Curse of the Werewuff' is a new entry into Nick's Halloween canon and a welcome one at that. A show that has become too precious as of late, this stops before going to far with its own "cuteness". I still prefer thir original Halloween episode 'Candy Bar Creep Show', but 'Werewuff' is still highly enjoyable! The Fairly Odd Parent's 'Scary GodParents' is equally hip and funny and SpongeBob SquarePants' 'Scaredy Pants' is perfect. Only the strange inclusion of two non-Halloween related Rocket Power stories stops me forom giving this a five-star rating; they have a Halloween epsiode so why wasn't it included? Their two entires seem pointless and only one is anywhere near being holiday themed. With so many great Halloween epsiodes left off the DVD, one has to wonder at this choice.


Everyone loves Halloween!It's that time of year where people are encouraged to put on a costume and become someone else for a night. It's such a great way to shed some of you inhibitions, free yourself of demands and busy schedules and just have fun.Make it a family night or go out with a group of friends and enjoy "not" being yourself!

Ever wonder what the fashion was like in the 1920's? By just putting on a costume you can transform yourself back in time to the Roaring Twenties, the decade of "bath tub" gin, the Model T, the $5 workday and the movie.The costume history image in our minds of a woman during this time is likely to be the image of a Flapper. A fashionable Flapper had short sleek hair, a shorter than average shapeless shift dress, wore make up and smoked with a long cigarette holder.Today at Halloween women can easily transform themselves into Flapper Girls, Can-Can Dancers, Saloon Lady's or even Betty Boop.Men can go back in time by putting on a classic fitted Zoot Suit and stylish Fedora to play the part of a Gangster or don a baseball uniform and portray the legendary Babe Ruth or Lou Gehrig.

The 1950's and 60's were decades filled with rock-n-roll music and at the heart of it all was American Bandstand with Dick Clark. It showed teenagers everywhere how to do the latest dance steps such as; the Twist, the Hand Jive and the Stroll.The 1950's fashion for men was the "bad boy" look of a white t-shirt, jeans and a leather jacket (with the collar up of course) or the "good guy" look of a letter sweater, jeans and penny loafers.One look the women opted for was the infamous poodle skirt and saddle shoes.The 60's brought with it Woodstock and the retro-hippie look of wearing mini skirts, go-go dresses and hotpants. No costume idea would be complete representing the 50's and 60's if two of the biggest names in music history weren't mentioned; "The King" Elvis Presley and "The British Invasion" of The Beatles.Every year on Halloween you'll see kids and adults alike dressed as Elvis, John, Paul, George and Ringo.These costumes are extremely popular and can be found around the world!

So this Halloween take a step back in time to the Roaring 20's, the Glamorous 50's or the Groovy 60's.It's as simple as a costume, some makeup and a wonderful imagination!

Shrek the Third-Karate Cinderella Costume

Includes dress with tear away sleeves and tiara. Shoes not included. Available in child sizes toddler, small, and medium.


A Superhero is defined as, "a hero, especially in children's comic books and television cartoons, possessing extraordinary, often magical powers; usually portrayed as fighting evil or crime." Every child dreams of being a superhero and this Halloween will be no exception. It's one night that a child can actually become the superhero they dream about. Making their dream a reality is as simple as a costume and a night out trick-or-treating where everyone from family and friends to the neighbors can see them dressed head to toe as their favorite superhero.

Since the debut of the superhero Superman in 1938, stories of superheroes have dominated American comic books and have crossed over into television and the big screen. What draws many children to superheroes is simple - good v/s evil, with good always winning in the end. Of course their superhuman powers and all the cool gadgets they have doesn't hurt either. Another reason is that many superheroes are shroud in secrecy. They have secret identities, secret powers and even secret headquarters. Most wear masks and have some sort of sign on their costume recognizing them; for example, Batman has a bat on his chest, Superman the letter "S" and Spiderman has a webbed spider costume. On Halloween night children love the fact that they have a little bit of secrecy and that no one really knows who is behind the mask.

Many superheroes work alone in fighting crime, however there are also many superheroes that work in teams such as the Fantastic Four, X-Men, Justice League and Avengers. This makes for some great ideas for "group" costumes if your child wants to trick-or-treat with several of his friends.

A superhero themed birthday or Halloween party is also a wonderful idea. The child having the party gets to pick which superhero they want to be then all his/her friends come dressed as other superheroes. With all the great summer movies out this year there are quite a few superheroes to pick from; Batman The Dark Knight, The Incredible Hulk and Iron Man just to name a few.

So this year for Halloween turn your child's dream into a reality and make them truly feel like a superhero for the day!

For a simple yet sensuous feeling try a silky stretch knit top with beading along neck edge. Attach a long tie that wraps several times around the waist! It will look good only if you are slim. Make the top with a blend of viscose & elastane and ties with polyester chiffon.

If you want a special special Santa dresses then you have many options. A long red Santa gown, with white marabou trim - may have long side slit- will look elegant. A short velvet costume marabou trimmed details and lace-up, zip up, or open front will look very sweet.
