Wheelchair Halloween Costume Guide

Not sure how to decorate your child’s wheelchair for Halloween? 

 

We’ve searched the web for creative Halloween costumes that you can build at home or find online. To start, here are five of our favorite looks we found on Instagram:

 

Hot Air Balloon Pilot

 

Kirstin, a proud mother of four daughters (two daughters are diagnosed with cystic fibrosis and one is diagnosed with multiple disabilities), created this elaborate costume for one of her girls. The colorful balloon and flags make this truly stand out!

Buzz Lightyear 

 

Jorden, young cancer survivor, is ready to launch into infinity and beyond as the space ranger in Disney Pixar’s Toy Story—the tap lights on the ship’s wings are a useful detail for trick-or-treating at night.
