“Charlie and Lola Volume 9: What Can I Wear for Halloween” DVD Review & Giveaway
This was the first time that my family and I were introduced to Charlie and Lola. They are ADORABLE!! I received a copy of “Charlie and Lola, Vol. 9: What Can I Wear for Halloween?” on DVD. My boys really enjoyed watching it and I actually enjoyed it as well. It was cute to see the brother and sister team and their friends work together to prepare for Halloween! My favorite character was Charlie because he reminded me so much of my oldest boy!
BBC Video released “Charlie and Lola Volume Nine” What Can I Wear for Halloween” on September 8th, 2009. “Charlie and Lola” is an award-winning preschool series. In this DVD, we follow the adorable sibling duo and their friends as they get together to prepare for their school’s Halloween Party. Charlie, Lola, Lotta and Marv have been growing a pumpkin all through summer, and it’s enormous. Everyone has decided what costumes to wear, except for Lola. On the day of the party, however, disaster strikes. Bat Boy (otherwise known as Morton from upstairs) splatters the pumpkin and now Lola has a double crisis on her hands. Featuring nine fun-filled episodes, including the double-length Autumn special, Everything is Different and Not the Same.”

My favorite costume was the headless horseman with a pumpkin for a head

I think the favorites were the ones that were easy to put on and not hard to move around. Winnie the pooh was and easy one when I was little- no mask and warm where we lived
My favorite costume was bunny penguin also remember a bunny rabbit one 😉
When I was little we had to create our own costumes most of the time..I think my favorite was a christmas tree that I made for my sister.Now that I am a mommy I love looking for costumes for my children and they always pick such great ones that I never want to get rid of them.

Ahahaha – my favorite Halloween costume was so gawd-awful: huge fuzzy rainbow wig, blue false eyelashes, a purple shawl and shiny gold pants….I think I was supposed to be a punk rocker or something. Only an 8 year old could love a costume like that!! = P

My favorite costume wasn’t mine,buy our dog’s.
We had a schnoodle and we dressed him up with a scarf around his neck as a cowboy and he was always the first at the door for candy.
Come to think of it he got more attention than any of us kids. lol
