Why the pumpkin costume is so popular with little ones
The pumpkin costume is probably the most instantly recognizable of all Halloween costumes, because it draws directly on the holiday's best-known symbol. It's usually padded and cut round, giving small kids a cute, cuddly look. Unlike more complex costumes, the pumpkin look only needs an orange, padded top and a green hat — simple, comfortable, and instantly recognizable.
