Looking around the stores and hearing from other parents, there are a couple of themes this year. For the boys, The Avengers is popular. If your child is trick or treating with a group, this makes for a great theme. The group could consist of Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, Thor, & Hawkeye. If sisters are in the group, there is a female Avenger--Black Widow. The Avengers could also be a family theme if you have a family with more boys than girls.
Of course, many girls this year will want to be the strong Disney character, Merida from Brave. It is also a fun excuse to super curl the hair and go all out. Another female character that is popular this year is Catwomen from Dark Knight.
For both boys, girls, and parents, there are Angry Bird from Space and Angry Bird Ice Bomb costumes. I love little ones dressed as angry birds since they are often in a wagon and look like they are nesting as they sit together.
I found a lot of good ideas on Pintrest this year and some of them work for a non-sewer, stick it together with glue and staples kind of person like myself. Visit http://pinterest.com/worlds/2012-halloween-ideas/ for ideas.
