Instead of scary, some children are adorable this Halloween.

The smallest of babies and their parents are celebrating the holiday with tiny sized costumes.

"Every day, a child in the NICU can be frightening and uncertain, but holidays are especially tough, as families miss the normal joys of celebrations at home," said Rebecca Keunen, March of Dimes/NICU family support coordinator at Saint Luke's Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri.

The March of Dimes is helping families remember their babies’ the first Halloween with costumes and photo opportunities.
