Would this work for a Halloween costume .. and how do I make it work?

Help

We're going to a halloween party in the afternoon .. its for the kids, and DS is going as a pumpkin (thank you woolies )

I was thinking I could go as a 2-headed thing (like the one on Total Recall?] 'cos I'll need to carry DD (5 months) anyway I thought I'd put her in the sling and then maybe button one of DH's shirt over it so you can just see her head

that's as far as my imagination goes .. I have some devil horns? .. what do I need to do to make it work / look funny not too scary

PS don't suggest make-up for DD she's only 5 months

thanks all

no-one?

is it that pants an idea then?

I can't remember what the 2 headed thing looked like

this is kuato from total recall

but I thought a kind of sanitised version for a 4 year old's party

He looks like my 4-month ds when he's in a rage over sleep - would you like to take him instead?

Can you paint a body/hands on a large Tshirt and cut a slit to poke her head through? You don't need to be very good at painting since it's a 4yo party. Maybe sew/glue a long pointy tail to the back?

Hmm, this is a hard one. Can you make up some kind of 'freaky' hair for dd by sticking some wool or something around a bobble hat that she would wear? Could you then have something similar yourself but also have some 'slightly' scary make-up (a stick-on scar)?

DD has a natural mohican .. don't think I'll need 'freaky hair'

oh well .. back to the drawing board ..
