Take Me Out To The Ball Game!

Tuesday was the opening day of one of our nation’s favorite pastimes – baseball!  The game between the Red Sox and A’s, which was played in Japan, is apparently a very positive event for the game of baseball.  From everything I’ve read, Major League Baseball’s decision to hold opening day in Japan is another step in successfully growing the game internationally. 

Opening day is always exciting for the Major League Baseball season.  Every team starts off with the same record and every fan jumps on the bandwagon in hopes that their team will go all the way this year (although everyone knows that a “true” fan never jumped off the bandwagon to begin with – even if their team was doing badly)!  Monday, March 31 is the opening day game for my favorite team – the Cincinnati Reds.  They play against they Arizona Diamondbacks and it will be a great game!  Our weather is finally warming up and it’s going to be a beautiful spring day in Cincinnati.  Every year my husband and some of his friends take off work and make a day of it by going to lunch down on the river and then walking across the bridge to see the Reds play their opening day game. 

If you’ve got an opening day game coming up, be sure to check out all of our baseball costumes and accessories – you’ll be the life of the party!

Cat In The Hat, Green Eggs and Ham, One Fish Two Fish Red Fish Blue Fish, Hop on Pop – these are just a few of the wonderful books by Dr. Seuss that we all grew up with, our children grew up with, and their children will grow up with.  Sunday, March 2, is Theodore Seuss Geisel’s birthday (better known as Dr. Seuss).  In celebration of this special day, Monday, March 3, Random House and the National Education Association are having their second annual ”Read Across America” Day.  Join the millions of kids, teens and adults on that day by picking up a book and reading to a child. 

Many schools, librarys and centers across the nation will be celebrating “Read Across America” on March 3.  What better way to show children the fun of reading Dr. Seuss than by actually becoming the Cat In The Hat!  At Halloween Express we have deluxe Cat In The Hat costumes for all ages.  The children will enjoy dressing up as Cat In The Hat just as much as the adults will.  What a great way for the whole family to have fun! 

From the words of Dr. Seuss himself, “You’re never too old, too wacky, too wild, to pick up a book and read to a child”!

Great Movie and TV Costumes

You’re probably sick of me asking this, but do you have your Halloween costume yet?  There’s still time!  Go to our shipping page and you’ll see you can still order your costume and have it shipped to you in time for Halloween. It’s not too late. Here’s the link: Just in Time Shipping Schedule and Delivery Calculator

Grease is one of my all time favorite movies!  Who can forget Rydell High with Danny, Sandy, Rizzo, Kenickie, Frenchy, The T-Birds and The Pink Ladies?  The movie was released in June 1978 and is still wildly popular today.  I don’t think there’s a song in that movie that most people don’t know every word to.  Even my children love it!  With our line of Grease costumes now you go back to the days of poodle skirts and saddle shoes.  Check out all our Grease costumes at Grease Halloween Costumes.  Grease is the word!

The Lord of the Rings is a blockbuster trilogy consisting of:

  • The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring
  • The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers  
  • The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King   

The films were critically acclaimed, winning an unbelievable 17 Academy Awards.  My nephews love this trilogy and have seen them over and over again.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve played Lord of the Rings Monopoly with them!  The characters in the movie are so well known that when you dress as one for Halloween everyone knows what character you are.  Gandolf, Frodo, Aragorn, Legolas, Queen Arwen and even the lovely Gollum are some of the costumes you can choose from.  See our entire line of The Lord of the Rings costumes at  Lord of the Rings Halloween Costumes.

As far as children and Nickelodeon go, there’s no better match.  Children love Nickelodeon and all the characters that come with it.  So when it comes to picking out their costumes many children want to be the characters that are in the Nickelodeon shows they like.  Sponge Bob (which I happen to know is not just a childs favorite – many adults love Sponge Bob) and his friend Patrick, Blues Clues, Dora the Explorer and her brother Diego are all shows that children love to watch.  For all our Nickelodeon favorite costumes go to  Nickelodeon Halloween Costumes.

Remember there’s still time to shop, order and receive your costume from Halloween Express.  Get shopping now and make this Halloween a night to remember!

You Can Be a Superhero!

How cool would it be to be a Superhero for a day?  Well, now you can – at least for Halloween.  What better character to play than one that has super powers and strength?  Ok, you might not get the super power thing, but you can still put on the costume and look just like the Superhero of your choice!  There are so many different costumes and sizes that just about everyone from a toddler to an adult can be a Superhero.  Because there’s so many to choose from they’re great for individual, couple and group costumes.  You could have a whole family of Superheroes – even your dog can find a superhero costume!

Wonder Woman:  For all you women out there that feel you play the role of Wonder Woman all the time with going to work, raising kids, doing the laundry, cleaning, making dinners, etc…, why not actually be Wonder Woman in full gear for the night and get the respect you deserve?    Wonder Woman Halloween Costume   

Supergirl:  This is the woman who keeps Superman in line.  Why should he get to have all the fun?  Super Girl Halloween Costume

Batgirl:  This is one sexy Batgirl costume!  Once again, Batman’s better half.  Bat Girl Halloween Costume

Masked Beauty:  If Zorro had a gorgeous seductive female counterpart this would be her.  Mystery Hero Halloween Costume

But, hey let’s not forget about the guys!  Besides your everyday fantastic Superheroes such as, Superman, Spiderman and Batman you have a few Superheroes you don’t hear about that often.  But believe me when you put on any of the following costumes, no one will be forgetting them any time soon.

Captain America  Captain America Halloween Costume

The Incredible Hulk   Hulk Halloween Costume 

Zorro  Zorro Halloween Costume

What’s great about these costumes is that most of them come in child sizes too.  Check out all our Superheroes costumes for adults/teens and children.  This Halloween you can be one of the good guys!
