While Halloween 2020 might be a little (or a lot) different from past years, we can still get into the Halloween spirit by planning some awesome Halloween costumes for the kids. Scroll down for some great Boston-inspired Halloween costumes for kids and families that will put your DIY skills to good use. Which one can win your neighborhood costume contest?
Red Sox Fan
Deck your Rookie of the Year out in all their Red Sox gear and you've got the perfect (reusable) costume for Halloween. Pair it up with the costume below for the perfect sibling set.
Dig out all those green clothes and deck the kids out from head to toe. This costume plays homage to the 37-foot-2-inch-high green wall in Fenway Park's left field.
Boston Baked Beans
How cute would this be as a costume made out of one of the many, many Amazon boxes you have lying around?
New England Patriots Fan
You know you have drawers full of Pats gear so why not bust them out this Halloween for an easy, comfortable and reusable costume.
Dunkin Donuts
Life is better with Dunkin and this too-cute costume is perfect for little ones who love those donuts.
Abigail Adams
There are plenty of famous Bostonians that make for great Halloween costumes and we especially love Abigail Adams as an option. A powerful woman in American history, Abigail Adams was one of the founders of the United States, bearing the designations of second First Lady and first Second Lady. She is well known for her numerous letters to her husband John Adams that are filled with complex, political discussions.
This is another Boston-inspired costume idea that you could totally make out an Amazon box. It pays homage to the iconic sign that has been displayed near Kenmore Square since 1940.
One of the founding fathers of the United States, Benjamin Franklin was born in Boston in 1706. A scientist and inventor, Franklin is most known for his discoveries relating to electricity.
Romeo & Juliet, the Boston Swans
These swans that make their home in the Boston Public Garden every summer are the perfect inspiration for a Halloween costume. If your little one is totally obsessed with visiting Romeo and Juliet, this is the DIY costume for you.
Make Way for Ducklings
Get all the neighborhood ducklings in on this one, it's too adorable to pass up. Get a mama duck for the front and little ducklings to follow along and everyone will know you are the famous bronze ducks created by Nancy Schön located in the Public Garden near the corner of Beacon Street and Charles Street.

We love the creativity that went into this costume of everyone's favorite public transportation system, the T.
MBTA Tandem Bus
How totally cute is this idea for a Boston-inspired #boxtume? We especially love the tandem style as it will force your kids to work together while trick-or-treating. Win-win!
The MBTA transit police are the inspiration for this awesome costume for a kid who loves everything about the MBTA.
Boston Bruins Fan
Hockey fans, we haven't forgotten about you. This totally cute costume is perfect for a last-minute option when you get invited to a neighborhood costume party.
