Plague Doctor Costume for Kids

Sick CostumeLet’s face it: kids are germy. And they should be! What is life without all the fun stuff, like picking noses, playing in the mud, and throwing food? Boring, that’s what it is! Let your kiddo enjoy their icky, gooey, slimy stuff, and teach them about cleaning up afterward. You can forget sick days, because this Plague Doctor costume will scare away any germs who dare to linger too long on your child’s hands (we also recommend soap for that).We know that when they said they wanted a sick costume this isn’t exactly what you had in mind. But wearing this might even inspire them to become a doctor when they grow up! When you dress your child in this creepy costume, you’re really investing in their future.  Fun Details This Kid’s Plague Doctor Costume has a classic, dignified (did we mention terrifying?) look. The black on black hooded robe reaches all the way down to their ankles and has shiny black cuffs on each wrist. The hood is attached to a dramatic collar that matches the sleeve cuffs. The most menacing piece is the mask, designed to look like the beaks doctors wore in the middle ages to protect them from bad smells. Pack a satchel full of historical cure-alls and herbs for the beak mask, and your little kiddo will be ready to treat bubonic plague! (FUN.com not responsible for any contraction of bubonic plague that results from trick or treating in this costume.)The CureIf you’ve been worried sick about what costume your little doctor should wear this year, we have the cure. Whether your child is hoping to frighten neighbors while trick or treating or to win the creepiest costume contest at a party, this Plague Doctor Costume is sure to do the trick! They might even learn a little bit about medieval medicine (though we don’t recommend letting them practice any of it).
