Happy Halloween! 🎃
At Duluth Mom, we’re feeling festive and want to spread our spooky joy on to you, our readers. So we’ve brewed up a plan to host our 4th annual costume contest! We think it’s a great way to stay safe, because it’s a virtual event, but still give families the opportunity dress up your kiddos for sweet prizes.
The contest categories and rules are pretty straight-forward, you can read them below, and we can’t wait to see how creative you all get! To be perfectly honest, we’re really looking forward to cooing at all the cute littles in their costumes. We could all use a bit more light-hearted joy these days, dochya think?
Five Categories
- Best DIY/thrifted/homemade costume
- Best group theme costume {including 2 or more individuals}
- Cutest costume under 2 years old
- Best costume of any aged child
- Best family pet costume
Official Rules
