Perfect for Christmas! Costume Ideas for Kids (21–30)
Vocaloid

These are costumes for virtual singers like Hatsune Miku, Kagamine Rin, and Kagamine Len.
Vocaloid-style outfits are basically designed for playing instruments and dancing, so they look very easy to move in! Many of the hairstyles are simple too, so they seem easy to recreate right away.
Plus, since the structure is like a lightly modified school uniform or trad style, the costume-making process also seems appealingly simple.
However, if you’re going to dance, pay attention to your shoes and the hems of your pants.
It’s safer to shorten the hems compared to the official illustrations.
Minecraft

Minecraft is a game that’s appealing because you can build whatever structures you like and live in survival mode.
The characters in this game look like combinations of blocks, which makes it easy to create cosplay using inexpensive construction paper and felt from 100-yen shops.
Among them, the zombie—which can be made using just two colors, green and black—doesn’t require preparing many colors, making it a perfect cosplay for busy parents.
Green construction paper is especially versatile since it can also be used to make Christmas trees.
In conclusion
We’ve introduced lots of Christmas-perfect cosplay ideas for kids—did you find something you like? For popular anime character costumes, there are often many how-to videos uploaded on video sites, so be sure to make good use of them!
