Coolest Homemade Mister Potato Head Child Halloween Costume

We decided to make this Homemade Mister Potato Head Child Halloween Costume because our son loved the toy. It was actually very easy to do.

I followed the pattern of a bumblebee and made the body of the potato. I then included an extra flap in the back and had false pieces hanging out, just like the real toy. I used felt and foam for the rest of the body parts.

I dressed my son in flesh-colored tights (MPH doesn’t have legs so I did not want them to stand out!). He also wore a white shirt and white gloves. He wore an oversized hat that I made out of a foam hat and extra foam. The hat covered his face but he had space to see and breathe. To top it off, I spray-painted his shoes with glossy paint.

The costume was a hit! We won a local contest and we were all so pleased.
