Children's Medieval Costumes - Fun at the Renaissance Fair

Admit it or not, parents love to dress up their children whether it is an everyday staple or a big renaissance fair. Although most of children's medieval costumes should best stay on the runway, it is amazing to note that a great number of children could easily glide down to reality and wear renaissance costumes with flair and ease.

Contrary to what is believed that in order to crop up a good medieval costume painstaking handiwork is needed, what most people fail to realize is that they can make children's' medieval costumes and fancy dresses through the use of little creativity and resourcefulness. But, if you choose to purchase a tailored and custom-made one, local boutiques and online stores are the best pit stop.

Here are few children's medieval costumes for your little boys and girls:

Boys Medieval Costume
A renaissance king costume, a crusader, a knight, and a musketeer tunic are some of the great selections for your little boy. If your boy is going to play renaissance faire king for a day, then a bright maroon or red cape with black velvet doublet and pants will certainly lent character to a renaissance king role.

Other accessories that include a crown and a renaissance sword replica of either Egyptian bast or a Napoleon ceremonial sword will absolutely complete your renaissance king gear.

Girls Medieval Costume
For little girls, a renaissance queen or princess will certainly be a crowd's favorite.

You may have a difficult time narrowing your choices, but what is perfect for little girls is one that will show off either a regal as a queen character or a sweet as a princess attitude. The choices of color can be gold with bright yellow panels, which will shine through the rich and vibrant texture of the fancy dress.
