Happy Halloween from the Candyland Crew!

We do not mess around when it comes to our family Halloween costumes. Over the years, we’ve dressed as everything from dolls and monsters to Peter Pan and E.T. characters! It’s one of my favorite traditions, and we’ll do it for as long as the girls are into it. Luckily, Greta (who’s 12) is still very on board, so we had a family meeting to brainstorm what we should be this year! This year we got everything from bricks (Polly) to Hunger Games (Greta—who read all the books this year!) to Minecraft people (Faye). We kept brainstorming and came up with something everyone is really excited about individually. The Original Candyland characters.

The best part about these family costumes is that they’re all pieced together with things we buy and things we already have. They end up being a hodgepodge of whatever else we can find, which is what makes it so fun and magical.

Here’s a closer look at this year’s Candyland Halloween costumes and how you can “get the look.”
