Recommended Halloween costumes for boys! Cool outfits kids will love (21–30)
Pikmin
Perhaps because there are a variety of colors like red, yellow, and green, Pikmin are popular with children.
I often hear kids say, “I like the Pikmin of this color.” Let them enjoy Halloween by wearing a costume of their favorite Pikmin.
You could also make a piece that fits over the head to become the Pikmin’s face.
To make it more Halloween-like, how about adding bolts to resemble Frankenstein, or carrying a broom to look like a witch?
ninja
This ninja Halloween costume is recommended for active boys who love to move their bodies.
Ninjas have lots of elements boys tend to like and be good at, such as quick movements and shuriken skills.
While there are many authentic ninja costumes available online, you can also remake one using a jinbei.
You can handcraft a ninja outfit by folding paper shuriken out of origami or making a sword by rolling up newspaper.
It can become a fun craft time with your child.
With kids moving like real ninjas, it’s sure to turn Halloween into a fun time.
ghost
You often see white ghosts around Halloween, right? These ghosts, covered entirely with a white sheet and with pitch-black eyes and mouth, are also called Halloween ghosts.
They look a bit like Japan’s teru teru bozu and feel more cute than scary.
If you make a poncho out of a white towel or fabric for kids to wear, you can create a ghost vibe.
It’s easy to move in even as a costume, so it might be a perfect Halloween outfit for energetic boys, too.
It seems suitable for children of a wide range of ages.
Mikey
An outfit of Mikey from Tokyo Revengers that makes you want to say, “Anyone chickening out?” Mikey’s famous line was a big hit on social media, wasn’t it? With blond hair and a school uniform, this costume will definitely stand out at Halloween.
There’s a certain cuteness to a boy wearing a blond wig and a gakuran you don’t usually see in everyday life.
Also, Tokyo Revengers has arcs like the ‘Bloody Halloween’ series, so why not use that as a reference? If you make the costume and wig together with your child by hand, it sounds like you’ll have even more fun time together.
prisoner
When it comes to unique Halloween-themed costumes, prisoner outfits come to mind.
As the name suggests, it’s a costume inspired by someone who’s been captured, featuring a striking black-and-white shirt with an inmate number.
It fits perfectly on the Halloween stage, where spooky characters like ghosts and Frankenstein take the spotlight.
When children wear it, it gives an even cuter impression.
Collaborate with other Halloween characters, strike some poses, and have fun celebrating Halloween!
Woody
When it comes to cowboy costumes, Toy Story’s Woody is the go-to! A yellow checkered shirt and a cowboy hat are sure to catch everyone’s eye.
Since there are lots of accessories like a belt and a scarf, this costume is better suited for older kids than tiny babies.
The cow-print vest and gold buckle are super cool! Let’s go all-in and become an adorable cowboy!
skeleton
When you think of Halloween, ghosts are a classic, but among them, skeletons are especially popular for their spooky vibe! If you make it too realistic, it might end up more scary than cute, though (lol).
Kids might put on expressions you don’t usually see and have fun with it.
You can use a mask, but it might be hard to find one in a child’s size.
In that case, try doing a full face makeup! Even beginners at special effects makeup should find a skeleton look relatively easy.
