This is the second article in stock photos of children playing, focusing on children in costumes or playing dress up. You can find the first article with photography of children physically playing here.

I would doubt that anyone doesn’t have at least one experience (if not dozens) of dressing up either in costume to be a super hero saving the world or in parents’ clothes pretending to be an adult. I personally was Voltron Defender of the Universe one Halloween and it just so happened their were no attacks by the Drule Empire that year, just saying ;). It would seem that the image of a child dressing up evokes a sense of hope, at least it does for me. It’s the idea that a kid can still become whatever they have their heart set to be; the world hasn’t said no to their dreams with its limitations and rules.

Now I am not actually sure what designs these photos would be best for other than within ads for kids costumes this Halloween, but the application is always up to you. And I would love to see your design if you use one of these photos, or one from any other article, so leave a link in the comments.
