I know, I know, he’s a really good sport, agreeing to wear whichever big yellow costume I design for him (he was Big Bird last year)īut M really enjoyed having his Daddy participate too – so it was worth every second of it! He was a bit annoyed that I used HIS flashlight, but I think he’s forgiven me, since it was worth it. He reuses this costume now for pretend play. PAW Patrol Marshall – family costume idea: Make the vest in different colors and sizes. Add a tutu if you’re dressing up a little girl. While these were designed as a family costume – with two adult costumes, a preschool-age costume, and a baby costume – it can easily be adapted to other sizes. Total cost for four costumes was about $15, plus supplies I already had. ![]() This DIY PAW Patrol family costume idea was inexpensive to put together, although it did take some time. To this day M still calls us by our PAW Patrol names – a true indicator of success, for me, at least! Granted, these DIY costumes did not come out perfect.

Over a year later, the boys still cram their heads through these 2T neck holes, just so they can team up and pretend to save Adventure Bay!… Pretend play at it’s best.I’ve been sharing my PAW Patrol inspired costumes, in past weeks, including some great DIY costumes for babies and toddlers. Creating simple ears using felt, I attached them to the cap with hot glue, then added the Paw Patrol hat sticker, and attached Rocky’s pup badge to my shirt. I used white, yellow and blue duct tape to create the illusion of Ryder’s vest and added a badge (printed on sticker paper) for more authenticity.ĭon’t lose it, re-use it! I decided to be Rocky, so got myself a green shirt and trucker cap. They also offer kid puffer vests, ( option #2) as well as fleece vests for a lower cost option. And of course, can’t forget the pup badge!Īs male leader of the pack, Cory dressed up as Ryder, wearing a red puffer vest that I found on Amazon (the exact one I used has since been discontinued but they offer other options as well, like this one). I already had a pink aviator-style hat from GAP that worked perfectly (it is now sold out, but Amazon has a similar one), and I kept it simple with a pink long-sleeve onesie and black pants. It was only appropriate for Avery to be Skye (this was before Everest was introduced), so I purchased pink aviator goggles, sewed ears using fleece fabric stuffed with Poly-fill, then attached the ears by sewing them around the goggle straps (leaving flexibility for all sizes to wear – even adults!). Using black strapping, I added the collar and attached Rubble’s pup badge (from the Action Pack Pup & Badge toy) to the shirt. ![]() ![]() After attaching the ears with a glue gun, I added the Paw Patrol hat sticker (printed on sticker paper). I created his ears with the same fabric, and gave them dimension by using Poly-fill and pipe cleaners. I cut off the t-shirt sleeves to sew on arms, and made pants by using fleece fabric. I hot glued ears to the helmet, added a collar with yellow strapping, and finished it with the final touch of his pup badge (from the Action Pack Pup & Badge toy) and Paw Patrol hat sticker (printed on sticker paper).Įvan wanted to be “Rubble on the double!”, so I purchased a toy construction hat and yellow t-shirt. After cutting off the sleeves to the t-shirt, I sewed on arms and made pants by using white fleece fabric and attaching black felt spots with Stitch Witchery (a no-sew/iron-on fusible tape – LOVE this stuff!). With Jacob’s obsession for the color red, it was no surprise he wanted to be Marshall the fire pup! I purchased a toy fireman hat and red t-shirt from Amazon. Since my Ghostbusters Costumes / DIY Proton Pack has been receiving the most amount of blog traffic, I thought I’d throwback to 2014 and share details on how I made our Paw Patrol Halloween costumes as well…
