When it comes to bangers, “The Floor Is Lava Dance” gets all the attention, but my kids and I are really all about “Brand New Day.” And honestly, “Gorilla Smash” deserves more love for the earworm that it is. If you understood even one of these references, you must be a parent. Or teacher. Or babysitter. So you know that when it comes to kid-friendly Halloween costumes, Danny Go would be pretty zeitgeisty—and get everyone pretty hyped.
Not to mention that it’d be fairly easy to throw together (even if you don’t have a Mindy Mango in your life to custom-dye your aqua shorts suit). Better yet, you can dress up your kids as their brain break icon.
Amazon sells button-down shirt and short combos in just about every color of the rainbow; I tried to vet ones that had solid reviews and were available with a quick turnaround. (Because some of you may be reading this because your kid decided on Oct. 28th that they’re all in on dressing as Danny Go, and not the Catboy costume you picked up weeks ago.)
My one-year-old may or may not be dressing up as DG this Halloween.
