About Monkey

Monkeys are primates that exist in several parts of the world including Africa, India, and South America. There are several species of monkeys as well. A monkey has the thumb as well as fingers so that they can grab on to branches and their food. They tend to spend their lives above ground where it is a little safer. Other names for monkeys are Chimpanzees and Gibbons though they are a type of species. They are also relatives of the Apes and Gorillas. You have many monkey species to choose from for costumes from the really cute to the hairless type. They tend to eat fruit, bushes, seeds, and even tree branches at times and depending on the species. They are rarely carnivorous though some species have been known to eat smaller animals. Monkeys have been seen in Religion as elements to worship. They are also in the Chinese Zodiac.

Dressing Up as Monkey

To dress as a monkey you will need to go as a cute and cuddly furry creature or something a little scary like the Apes from Planet of the Apes. Other costume ideas include King Kong, Tarzan and Jane, and Gorilla. There are several sizes to the monkey costumes, but most of the cute ones are in the infant to child range. You can be a full faced monkey or use your own face with a hood and ears to complete the look. Monkey’s have long tails so your costume should be complete with a tail as well. You can get the full face mask or a full suit depending on your budget. Monkeys tend to be brown in color, or white and black so you could dress in appropriate clothing and just have the mask. There are banana costumes as well as other accessories to make your idea complete. If you want something a little scary that option is available.
