The easiest costume for baby that can be made by those with not much skill with the sewing machine can be a ghost. A ghost baby Halloween costume can be made out of a cotton sheet or a bed sheet or cover that you are not using anymore. To prevent possible suffocation, instead of cutting out eye slits for your baby, it is best to cut out a hole where baby can stick his head out.

The Farmer

A farmer baby Halloween costume can be made by using a denim overall with a red checkered (or any color) shirt. A straw hat with some flowers (if your baby is a girl) or a handkerchief tied around the top completes the outfit.
