We created this Lego Family Costume to wear for a local 5K Halloween Costume Race. We wanted to include our son and have really fun and unique costumes. We ended up deciding to go with one of our son’s favorite toys, LEGOS!
The base of each costume consists of a solid color jogging suit, gloves, and knit hat. The “LEGO” portion of the costume consists of a large box, (our son’s box was actually an empty soda case) that we cut holes into (6 for the adult costume, 4 for the child costume). We then pressed butter bowls through from the inside and secured them on the inside using strips of duct tape. We also cut a hole in the top for our heads, and holes in the sides for our arms.
Once the costumes were constructed, we spray painted the boxes red, blue, and yellow.
These costumes were extremely inexpensive, very unique, and were a huge hit at the race. Everyone loved our “LEGO family” costumes!

o my gosh, that is so cute, you guys did an AMAZING job. Hope you guys have an awesome Halloween this year! wicked idea, by the way, hope you don’t mind me using it.
Really clever costumes! I love the brightness they bring to your family.
I made these for both my kids a few years ago. They won a prize for best costume at a local Halloween party. I cut holes in a cardboard box for arms, legs and head. I hot glued empty individual plastic fruit cups on it and spray painted them. It was so easy and just cost me the price of a couple cans of spray paint.
OMG If I had a family that would be great. I love it you guys rock
That is a very good family costume idea! Good Luck! Great JOB!
You guys did great!! So glad you put it online so I could borrow the idea. You look awesome.

This brings back so many memories….I made one for my son 11 years ago! He won 1st place at the PTO Halloween party. He also fell down while trick or treating and couldn’t get up!
