Besides the fact that you have to follow them around for hours while they go collect as much candy as possible, having a little kid on Halloween can be great.

Case in point: these kids who got dressed up by their parents in pop culture-referencing costumes they couldn't possibly understand. Do you really think a little girl knows what a Xenomorph is? No way. Who cares? That s--t is cute.

Here are other examples of kids who probably don't know what they're dressed up as.
