It shouldn't be this hard. I love Halloween and I love dressing up. However, I've never been responsible for someone else's costume before. This is new territory.
Some background: Goofy Junior is male, 2-1/2 years old. Average sized. He loves sports, especially football, but how lame is it to dress your kid is something he wears every Friday (football jersey? Yawn.
I have done a bit of looking around. Most toddler costumes are:
too cute and fluffy;
a character he's never heard of; or
just plain ridiculous.
So, dear readers, I'm asking for advice. What should Goofy Junior be for Halloween?
I want something that he's going to be excited about, look cute as, and be comfortable in. Try being comfortable in this!
AND, it's also got to be easy for Mom to put together. I do not sew, so do not recommend some crazy sewing pattern. I am fairly dangerous with a hot glue gun, having put together a Dorothy from Wizard of Oz costume (complete with red sparkly shoes!) with only a glue gun and some fabric.
Help!

Dinosaur - old pair of pajamas, hot-glue a tail onto it, then hot glue little triangles on the tail.
Ghost. What could be easier? And little kids love to put stuff over their heads and howl. Dorothy
You can't go wrong with a pirate costume and it's pretty easy to cobble one together out of the kid's existing wardrobe and a scarf or two of yours.
I think Jane wins for sheer virtue of the fact that used "cobble together" in reference to a pirate-themed costume. LOVE IT. haha
