2013 Hot Halloween Costumes for Kids

Even though it is just July, Halloween will be upon us before we know it.  The crisp feeling in the air, the leaves turning brilliant shades of orange, red and yellow and the jack'o lanterns that will begin to light up the porches.  Children from toddlers to teens will be excited at the prospect of becoming their favorite character for trick or treat or a fun Halloween party. 
 
I can remember from my childhood the excitement of choosing just the right costume.  In those days it was usually a gypsy, a witch or one of those famous Universal monsters.  But these days kids have a plethora of costumes from which to choose.  They can become their favorite movie character, cartoon hero, tv star or comic book character.
 
So today we will display some of the hottest costumes for this Halloween.  From monsters to princesses, we have them all.  See if one of them excites your little trick or treater. Grab them early to be sure your favorite is available.
 
1. Monster High-The ghosts and ghouls of Monster High continue to be girl's favorites.  These characters are all sons and daughters of famous classic monsters.  They all have their own style and unique personality.  Monster High cartoons are very popular this year.  Check out the Monster High costumes.

BABIES AND ELEPHANTS

It's June and summer time is upon us.  The month of June brings to mind weddings and new beginnings.  And what is a better new beginning than welcoming a new baby. 
 
C & P Treasures has lots of great items to help you welcome the newest member of the family.  From things that will delight your little one to things that will brighten your nursery. 
 
This adorable 3 piece set is perfect for any animal themed nursery.  Set includes a Taggies baby blanket with an adorable lilac colored elephant.  It has satin loops in different colors to encourage baby's to run their tiny fingers across the smooth soft surface. It also includes a plush pink elephant made by Beansprout.  This adorable elephant holds a baby blanket.  Blanket is white with pink polka dots.  And to make this set perfect it also includes a wooden pink sign with the words "Bless This Child Oh Lord We Pray Keep Her Safe Night and Day"
Perfect nursery décor for your little princess!
 
 
 
 
Another great item we have here at C & P Treasures which keeps with our elephant theme is this Disney Baby Plush Dumbo and Play and Sound Book.  This cute cuddly Dumbo plush measures 6 inches tall.  He comes with a songs for baby book.   Press the buttons and hear classic melodies.  This would make a wonderful baby shower gift!
 
 
 
We really love this elephant theme that we are on and one of the cutest things we have seen is this adorable sing and dance elephant from Carters.  This plush elephant is from Carter's Smiley Happy Friends. Pink elephant supports ABC Blocks on his tummy.  Press his arm and he sings the ABC Song as his feet move up and down in a dancing motion.   Guaranteed to delight young and old alike.  

 

 
 
 
 
 
No nursery is complete without musical mobile for baby's crib.  Coming to you straight from the jungle is this Zaire Elephant Mobile,  This mobile has four colorful plush elephants.  It plays the tune "Rock a Bye Baby".  Encourages visual, auditory and motor skills development.
 
 
 
 
And now for one of our personal favorites here at C & P Treasures I personally think it would make a perfect decoration for any elephant or jungle themed nursery.  A Dr. Seuss Horton Hear's a Who Vinyl Elephant Figure.  This limited edition figure comes in dark blue.  Lovable Dr Seuss character Horton comes with a removable clover and that famous spec of dust.
A true collector's item.

WHO DOESN'T LOVE HORSES?

 

I might be showing my age a bit but I remember watching Roy Rogers on Saturday afternoons and wishing I had a horse likeTrigger.  What a beautiful Palomino! 

The best summer of my childhood was when my Granddad came home with a Shetland Pony in the trailer.  His name was Ike and he was an ornery old pony.  His favorite thing was to head straight for a tree to see if he could knock you off on your rear.  He didn't take to being rode very well.  But my sister and I loved him anyway. 

Not only did we love our real pony but we loved playing with toy horses.  And now that we have online stores we love selling toy horses!  Every time we send one out we say a little prayer that whoever receives it enjoys it as much as we enjoyed our toy horses. 

So if you want to share some horse love with someone or maybe you just like collecting horses yourself, we have some great ones!

This is the first in a series of Elvis's beloved horses made by Breyer. Elvis wanted a horse of gold fit for a King of Rock & Roll. He found it in a 6 year Palamino Gelding he dubbed Rising Sun. 



Montana Lifestyles makes home decor which depicts the life of a working cowboy.  Their items make wonderful additions to any western decorating theme.  Keeping with our theme of horses this figurine features lovable Elmer.  Elmer is hauling some hay on his ATV.  This would make a great gift item!




This next item is a wonderful collectible trinket box depicting Spirit & Rain from the Dreamworks animated movie Spirit Stallion of the Cimarron.  Spirit is a wonderful tale of endearing courage and the unbreakable spirit of freedom that one stallion has inside.  It is a beautiful uplifting and inspirational story.  This porcelain trinket box from Breyer celebrates the story of Spirit and the pinto horse he loved Rain.




We can't leave the little ones out.  We have the perfect horse for the perfect little one.  Who doesn't love Woody's trusty steed Bullseye from Disney's Toy Story.  Bullseye is on his rocker and ready to ride!




Two things little girls love horses and jewelry.  This unique jewelry box combines both.  Not only is it a jewelry box with pretty ponies but when you open it up colored lights begin to twinkle.  What little girl wouldn't love that! 





If you have a jigsaw puzzle expert on your gift list we have the perfect puzzle.  This puzzle is entitled "Prancers".  It features five beautiful horses.  The artwork is by artist by Marilyn J. Heed.  This is one of several horse puzzles available.



We have many more horse items listed at C & P Treasures including several Breyer horses.  At C & P Treasures you can find great gift items and wonderful toys. We add new things every week.  Check our blog often to see what's new at C & P!
