There's going to be a lot of kids who want to dress up as Captain Kirk or Spock for Halloween and why not let them? It's only fair, right?
While there are plenty of retail Star Trek costumes available, there are still things you can do to make your child's Star Trek costume unique and memorable.
- Add a
toy phaser
to the costume. Your child will enjoy it and it will "complete" the costume.
- Give him or her a way to communicate with the rest of the Fleet with an Electronic Starfleet Communicator
- Let them be bad for a little while with a child size
Nero costume
Over all, have fun with it and don't get too caught up in being too realistic. It is Star Trek after all.
