I am really looking forward to taking my nieces trick or treating this year.
Evelyn is five and she now wants to be the scary cheerleader.

She picked this costume.

I was really shocked when I started looking at costumes how they try and design childrens costumes to be a bit sexy. With this costume we will be putting a long sleeve shirt on underneath the top. Im not crazy about the belly showing part. She will be wearing some tights underneath that skirt to.

This is the costume my younger niece will be wearing. She is two years old.

I couldn't agree more! Too many of these little girls being taught that sexy is in! I refuse to agree with these designers. They should all be shot. Today's kids are growing up way too fast. Cripe - little girls are outgrowing Barbie by the time they are 3!
 
I can't agree with you more.

Tesco, one of our local supermarkets was selling pole dancing kits for eight year olds. They received many complaints and I believe the item was with drawn. Also unsuitable and inappropirate underwear for little girls were on the shelves in this super market (or so I was told).

What is the matter with people wanting to manufacture totally inappropirate things for children to wear. They grow up fast enough as it is. Why try and ruin the innocence with corruption.

Apart from that the paedos are probably having a sickening feild day looking at them. It doesn't bear thinking about. Stinking pervs. YUK.

I live across the road from a grassy playing area and we have had problems with people who have been flashing at young girls. We have given loads of security discs to the police to see if they can identify them.

By the way children are delightful:) You must be very proud.
 
I was so shocked when I started checking out sites for costumes for 2-5 year olds. Belly baring tops and short skirts for five year olds! Some of the costumes looked like something Britney Spears would wear on stage.

I am proud of my nieces. I get all the fun and their poor Mom gets all the work lol. They come here and I spoil them rotten and she gets to take them home sugar high and all. They live about 45 miles or so from me way out in the middle of no where in a very rural area. My sis and her hubby bring them here on Halloween and we take them out to trick or treat. I take a thermos full of hot chocolate and some cookies and fruit it a tote bag with me to warm them up and give them a sugar boost while we are out. Then afterwards we go to my father in laws to trick or treat him and have our indoor picnic in his dining room. I make their favorite sandwiches and take, chips, cupcakes, pasta salad, fruit and fruit dip. My father in law always bakes them chocolate chip cookies. Before they go home I give them two plastic pumpkins full of their favorite candy. When we were kids people used to give out tons of good candy but these days the kids don't get much candy. Last year I weighed the candy filled pumpkins I made them and they were about 7 pounds each lol.
I love to make good memories for them.
 
Here are my girls candy buckets for this year. What do you all think? One if 2 and the other is 5.

Very cute girls. I have 2 daughters and taking them clothes shopping is a nightmare. It's so hard to dress kids without making them look like trash.
 
I was really shocked when I started looking at costumes for a five year old and they were cut to look sexy. We got the oldest a long sleeve shirt to wear under the cheerleader top and tights to go under the skirt. Evidently they think children want to dress like Britney Spears :rolleyes:

For weeks after trick or treat their Mama has to fight with them over their candy buckets. They want to have them for breakfast lol.

Nope those are for my girls. I have a silver bowl over on the bookshelf with candy in it to pass out. We only get 3-4 trick or treaters here cause the building only has 6 apartments and its kinda off at the end of town. The purple one is for Evelyn the oldest and the orange is for the baby. They call her Cat and that one had black cats on it.
I get a chuckle out of them arguing with their Mommy for the candy for three months after Halloween lol. She usually ends up putting their candy in the pantry with a hook on the door they cannot reach lol. Last year the oldest got a chair and unhooked it while they were still sleeping and was having her candy for breakfast one morning.
 
I am from the old school, a bit old fashioned, and it seems as though mostly all clothes that are designed for our chidren shows a bit of skin, all we can do is supervise their choices and hope they go along with it. On another note my adorable son insisted that I wear a Halloween outfit on Halloween day with him, I tried it on and he just laughed at me . I love him it is worth it! of course he picked it out a witch with a scary face cape and hat to match.. oh well!
 
One of my husbands friends showed up at the door last Halloween. He and his wife brought her two kids to trick or treat. He was dressed as a very ugly woman lol. Jon was at my FIL's so that was where they were going next. my FIL is kinda uptight so I called and warned him they were on the way. He met Jons friend at the door and told him he wasnt getting any candy cause he didnt dress up lol.
 
Thanks Cookie.

I talked to my five year old niece on the phone today and she was telling me that even though she would prefer to come get her candy bucket and stay here at the apartment playing on my computer til time to go to Papa Frank's to eat she would go trick or treat because she knows I like to take them. I am being humored by the five year old! lol. I messed up sending her pics of her bucket of candy ...now she figures just stay in where its warm. She tells me in her squeaky Mini Mouse voice that they never get much candy when they go trick or treating anyway but she knows Aunt Naney likes to take pictures of them trick or treating :rolleyes: I told her Mama what she said and she reminded me of year before last when I gave them their buckets before they went trick or treating and she wanted to stay here instead since she already had candy. The pictures of the buckets were meant to entice them to look forward to Halloween. :rolleyes: KIDS!
