"I want to be Iron Man for Halloween [1]," my toddler told me . . . in January. He has been talking about Halloween [2] since we went trick-or-treating last year — and begging me to watch the Halloween [3] episode of his favourite TV shows, to wear his old costumes, and to plan for this year's holiday ("we get candy on Halloween, Mama"). If your kid is obsessed with all things pumpkins and monsters, too [4], then check out some of these Halloween toys for toddlers available for purchase right now! These definitely-cute-and-not-scary toys are just spooky enough to hold a 3-year-old's attention without giving them nightmares later.
