Halloween, already? Not quite, but the day of national costume swap is less than three weeks and we wanted to be sure to give our readers a lot of time to prepare. In past years, we seem to announce the event right after it happens, or maybe the day before. Not this year!

Saturday, October 8 families across the nation costumes trading period in the new trick or treat wear. Green is free and is a great way to connect with local families. And the truth is, no matter how our children look cute in their costumes bumblebee baby, they can usually only be used once. Why not share it with someone else?

Green Halloween is a directory so you can find the swap in your area, or get one started. The site is managed by the illustrious team Dauth mother Lynn Colwell and Corey Colwell-Lipson, who also co-author of Green celebrate. We love his work on the green Halloween, and we are excited to see how national holiday costumes Exchange is growing every year.

Do you dress your baby in the planning of this year in October? What are you dressing concepts? You might want to think outside the box and use some rather creative (and weird) ideas for baby Halloween together this year. Or better yet, head to the Costume National Swap near you!
