6 Big Retailers Now Selling Adaptive & Wheelchair-Friendly Halloween Costumes
For many caregivers and people with disabilities, Halloween has often meant getting extra creative — sewing openings into store-bought costumes or handcrafting wheelchair covers by hand.
But thankfully, those days are starting to change. For those of us who don’t have the time, creativity, or love for DIY projects, adaptive Halloween costumes are now easier than ever to find.
Major retailers are finally recognizing the need for adaptive, wheelchair-friendly, and sensory-safe costumes that make Halloween accessible, and fun, for everyone.
This year, skip the stress, grab your pumpkin bucket, and conveniently shop inclusive Halloween costumes from some of your favorite big-box stores. Here’s where to find them.
