Coordinating your costume with your significant other, siblings or even office mates is a great idea when attending a Halloween Bash. A theme makes it that much more fun to get dressed up and have someone else to play off of. Plan to arrive at the party at the same time to make a grand entrance. Here are some fun monkey costume ideas to get your creativity started:
Wizard of Oz – Flying Monkey & The Wicked Witch of the West – The flying monkey costume is brand new this year and is one of my favorite ideas. I’ve always been a big Wizard of Oz fan, and I’ve been waiting for the flying monkey costume to come out! A group can use this theme by adding other characters from the movie, such as Glenda the Good Witch, Dorothy or the Scarecrow.
Michael Jackson and his Pet Monkey Bubbles – There is a lot of interest in Michael Jackson Costumes this year due to his untimely passing earlier this year. Turn this into a couples costume by adding his pet monkey Bubbles. Or you could go as two different Michael Jacksons. If you have a group you can go as the Jackson Five.
Monkey See and Monkey Do – A great idea for a pair of kids. Use two identical kids Monkey Costume sets and make 2 signs for them to wear-one is Monkey See and the other sign should say Monkey Do. The pair can play act all night at this.
Barrel of Monkeys – A lot of fun for a group. This idea can be adjusted to any size group, and the more monkeys the better. There’s an actual “Barrel of Monkeys” costume for an adult, and then everyone else can be in assorted monkey costume styles for all age ranges. My favorite is the Infant Monkey Costume, with this cute little monkey tail. This group concept is a really fun one, and the monkeys can really ham it up. Bananas make great props!
These are just a few ideas to get you started, but have fun with it and be creative. Most of these costumes can be purchased online, or if you are crafty you can try your hand at making them. Either way you’ll have a barrel of fun this Halloween!
