My kids aren't allowed to wear actual Halloween costumes to school, so every year I deck them out in as much spirited swag as I can to help them celebrate the spookiest holiday of all. Pumpkin socks and glow-in-the dark ghost t-shirts are all fair game, and this year, Halloween face masks are a must-have to help them go all out. (And no, I'm not talking about plastic Freddy Krueger-like masks.)

One of the many thoughts that raced through my mind ahead of my kids' first day back at school was whether or not I needed to stock up on different mask designs for different events. Are themed face masks the new holiday tee? Will they have silly mask day instead of silly sock day this year? Indeed, it seems my kids are quite determined to have holiday-themed masks to wear during the Halloween season.

Luckily, there are endless options to choose from when it comes to purchasing Halloween face masks for kids. Whether they want something spooky or cute, with jack-o-lanterns or with ghosts, there is no shortage of adorable options to help kids have fun dressing up while staying safe and protected from germs. Let this list inspire a whole new way to celebrate Halloween this year.

Personalized Face Mask

This white, pink, and black Halloween-themed face mask is so cute, it's scary. Tiny ghosts and goblins, bats, and spiderwebs look way less creepy thanks to the adorably festive pink pumpkin accents on this white kids' face mask. Best of all, it can be personalized with your kiddo's name.

Smiling Jack-O-Lanterns

A smiling, orange jack-o-lantern is one of those iconic Halloween symbols that adorns nearly every stitch of holiday clothing available to the general public.
