Halloween Nurse Costume

Halloween is a great time to introduce children to various professions available to them in their future. Being a budget conscious Mom, a nurse's costume is a great alternative, as they can be used as an outfit or pajamas. By using white fabric, you make sure your children will be seen on dark streets while trick or treating.

Today's nurses wear scrubs and these are available in children's and adult sizes at Gallaxy Mall with ordering available at the bottom of the page. There is also a lab jacket pattern available for a more classic nurse costume.

Top off the costume with white shoes. Old, play sneakers can be spray painted white, for a very economical solution.

A classic white nurses uniform can be made with almost any white outfit. A classic blouse can be lengthened for a child's dress. Later you can add trim to the dress for it to be used everyday or shorten it for a white blouse. A white blouse and a simple white skirt is another option, which can be used again to increase a child's wardrobe. By making a white blouse for Halloween, you are prepared for the near future Holiday concerts and events, that require a white top and dark pants or skirt.
