Spider-Man, Spider-Man, does whatever a spider can. Spins a web, any size, catches thieves just like flies. Look out!
Here Comes the Spider-Man Costume
If you have a little boy at home, chances are you will be searching for a Spider-Man costume at some point.
Spidey seems to be a popular choice for preschool superhero lovers. Luke, my three year old, insisted on being Spider-Man for Halloween last year (along with 9 other boys in his preschool class).
I lucked out and found a reasonably priced, high quality Spider-Man costume that fit him perfectly (I ordered an XS and he weighed about 40 pounds).
Amongst all of the Spider-Mans on Halloween night (and there were a lot of them), his costume seemed to be the most comfortable and durable.
I considered buying matching Spider-Verse outfits for the family, but I wasn’t sure my one year old (or my husband haha) would go for it.
Instead, I put together this DIY family costume around Spider-Man without much effort or cost.

Superhero Siblings
Wonder Woman was an easy (and adorable) addition to Spider-Man for my one year old girl. We used a hand-me-down from her cousin for her Wonder Woman costume, but there are a few cute options on Amazon right now.
Spider-Mom
Luke got a kick out of my spider web costume and I dressed it up with heels for an adult costume party.
Accessorizing options are endless with all of the fun spider gear available in the halloween section. I chose purple lipstick, face webs, gemstone web false lashes, and pinned a halloween spider web decoration into my hair to complete the Spider-Mom look.
DIY S.H.I.E.L.D Agent Dad Costume
I used my Cricut to add the S.H.I.E.L.D logo and logos from both kids costumes to a black long-sleeve shirt (I know, I know, different universes) and Dad fit right in with our superhero crew as a S.H.I.E.L.D agent.
