It was SO cute on our little guy as well. It was warm and went down close to his feet so we didn't have to worry as much about bundling him up underneath. He surprisingly kept the hat on as well. Review: Great for cold weather - CUTEST CATERPILLAR! Toddler costume was a delight for adults and kids alike while trick or treating. It is very puffy fill. Which was ideal because we had a very very cold Halloween. I didn’t worry about her being cold at all! Like a tiny insulated sleeping bag she toddled along cozy. Size is accurate. Feels well made, hat is not flimsy either. Definitely Worth the money. ## Features - COSTUME INCLUDES: Tunic, Headpiece - DOES NOT INCLUDE: Shirt and pants - OFFICIALLY LICENSED: The World of Eric Carle Very Hungry Caterpillar.

It was SO cute on our little guy as well. It was warm and went down close to his feet so we didn't have to worry as much about bundling him up underneath.

Toddler costume was a delight for adults and kids alike while trick or treating. It is very puffy fill. Which was ideal because we had a very very cold Halloween. I didn’t worry about her being cold at all! Like a tiny insulated sleeping bag she toddled along cozy. Size is accurate. Feels well made, hat is not flimsy either. Definitely Worth the money. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cute costume that my son did not mind wearing. *by T***Y on March 16, 2026* Bought this for my 2-year-old son. He was around 23 lbs. and 30 inches as it fit him well. Head strap was the only thing that did not fit. He looked adorable and I will miss seeing him at this age. It held up well thru multiple trick or treat outings. He didn't seem to mind the fabric, and it was soft enough. ## Frequently Bought Together - Rubies Baby/Toddler World of Eric Carle Very Hungry Caterpillar Costume - KIDS PREFERRED World of Eric Carle, The Very Hungry Caterpillar Bean Bag Toy, 10 inches - LINGTEER The Very Hungry Insects Cartoon Little Green Caterpillar Butterfly Swirls Streamers - 20 Pcs Children's Reading Story Birthday Party Decorations. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/543871147-rubies-the-world-of-eric-carle-very-hungry-caterpillar-costume](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/543871147-rubies-the-world-of-eric-carle-very-hungry-caterpillar-costume) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-09*
