Tinker Bell and Her Friends



Fairy Tale Costumes


Fairy tale costumes began their popularity when Disney Studios started making fairy tale movies, Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs, Sleeping Beauty, Cinderella and Beauty and The Beast to name a few. Wearing Mothers high heel shoes, hats, and dressers use to be as close to fairy tale costumes as we got, Now we see lovely fairy tale costumes that can be used for little girl's “play like” time along with tea sets, play dishes and kitchens.

Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs was released in 1937 and the first in a Walt Disney Animated Classics, with many more to come. The mermaid costume seems to be a little too heavy around toddler's ankles especially when they try to walk, however, it is perfect for babies who can have a little more protection from the cold.

Gone With the Wind was released in 1939, some of Scarlet's lovely outfits were a great influence on future costumes that we see now from toddler's to teens. The Green Velvet dress that was made for her was very vivid in color along with the gold tassels.
I have not seen that dress in my research, only found a Scarlet doll in that costume.

Fairy tale costumes are available also. One I especially liked was Tinker Bell.

I found a few and will list those here:.

1-Butterfly Fairy Costume
2-Candy Corn Fairy Child
3-Snow Fairy Queen
4-Pink Fairy Costume
5-Deluxe Angel Toddler
6-Sugar Plum Fairy Child
7-Spring Fairy Child
8-Foliage Fairy Green Child
9-Fairy Tale
10- Tinker Bell



Halloween will be here soon, It is a very exciting time for the children, buying candy that is low fat and low sugar will be in my plan, and keeping the children safe.
Enjoy your costume shopping.
