The best thing about working in a middle school is the kids. This is such a fun age! For lots of kids this is a hard time with hormones and home and school work, etc. But they are, for the most part, a ton to work with. The other totally cool thing about working in a middle school? It’s the perfect atmosphere for the staff to be goofy and fun and “let our hair down” when it’s appropriate. (See how I added ‘appropriate’? I don’t want to get in trouble.) =o)
My favorite school days are dress up days. We have a dress up day every month and it’s so much fun. They vary every year depending on what the kids voted on. Usually they include comfy cozy day (my absolute fav!), Super Hero Day, favorite character day, sport and hobby day… Things like that. Cool, right?!
Is it weird that I have an attic full of costumes? I love them. I have a big Spongebob costume, a clown, prisoner, Raggedy Ann, one of those costumes that takes batteries and blows up (it’s a horse), Fiona from Shrek and so many more. Heck, I still have every single Halloween costume my kids have worn. Is that super cool or super weird??? I’m going with super cool!
So when I was asked to do a costume review. Whoo hoo!
Wholesale Costume Club is a great online resource for costumes. I always buy our costumes online because every time we go to Fred Meyer or Target or anywhere else, they are usually sold out. I hate that. And I hate having every girl in the neighborhood in the same costume. I want my kids (and me) to be original. =o) And I am constantly amazed at how expensive costumes cost when you go to the store to buy them. I can find the same exact costume online for a better price. That’s what first sold me on the idea of internet shopping for them.
I immediately went to the girls costumes and looked around but then thought I’d better look for boys costumes instead. My daughter has been getting most of my giveaway winnings, since they are “girl” related and I didn’t want my son to feel left out. It didn’t take me long to figure out which costume he would love… the Stealth Ninja Costume! How cool is this?!?!
My son loved it! The costume included a jumpsuit with formed “abs” on it (so cool), a red sash belt with foam ninja stars and red arm ties and black leg ties. It also came with a mask to cover your nose and mouth (if you wanted to go completely undercover.) =o)
The best part… my son went running outside to get his friend (who also put on his ninja costume) and they jumped on the trampoline for hours in them. They did all of their karate moves and thought they were pretty darn cool.
The selection of costumes is amazing. I found an adorable Hello Kitty costume for my daughter and, of course, I am all about the Smurfette costume =o) Wouldn’t that be fun?!
You can also find them on Facebook to get updates and discounts.
Definitely where we are going to get our Halloween costumes this year!
Thank you to Wholesale Costume Club for sending us this awesome Stealth Ninja Costume to review! And, although we didn’t have to pay for the costume, the opinions expressed in this review are ours and we were not influenced by others.
My son has that EXACT ninja outfit, we were fortunate, I paid $2 for it with an extra sword at a church consignment sale. It’s very nicely put together!
Too cute! I love that it has the abs..lol I will have to check out the costumes for next Halloween:)
Fabulous outfit, and your son looks a hero no less:-)
