DIY Trick-or-Treat Wagon

Is your family ready for trick-or-treat season? I admit that trick-or-treating with two kids can be challenging, especially with so much Halloween excitement! But one of the ways that we stay prepared is making sure we have all of our Halloween essentials in tow. This year we packed up our trick-or-treat survival kit in this festive DIY Trick-or-Treat Wagon!

Find out how to stock your own as well as how we found adorable and affordable kids costumes at our Family Dollar!

Trick-or-Treat Is More Fun with Family Dollar Kids’ Costumes, Starting at $5

Once a frugal mom, always a frugal mom. I have the hardest time buying my kids’ Halloween costumes every year. I can never justify paying so much for an outfit that my kids will maybe wear once, twice if I’m lucky. My kids are constantly changing their minds too. One week it’s all princesses and super heroes. The next week it’s fairies and monsters.

Family Dollar takes the stress out of getting Halloween costumes for my kids. From classic costume ideas and even licensed kids’ favorites, there’s definitely plenty of variety to choose from. And with lots of great options starting as low as $5, I can grab costumes that look great and my kids can enjoy without breaking our budget. I’m proud to say that this year we only spent $10 total on my kids’ Halloween costumes at Family Dollar. Aren’t they cute?

My daughter’s witch costume is an adorable addition, and even comes with the pointy hat!

And my son loves his new ninja costume, complete with stealth mask.
