This is another great theme for the whole family, as there are Smurf costumes in every size, from infant bunting right up to Mom and Dad. And don’t forget – there are Gargamel costumes too!
Smurfs are a happy and friendly race of forest dwellers, similar to gnomes. Many people grew up watching the Smurfs cartoons in the 1980s might be surprised to find out that the Smurfs have actually been around since the late 1950s, when they were created by a Belgian cartoonist name Peyo. They were originally called “schtroumpf“, a word he invented at dinner one night. Schtroumpf was replaced by Smurf in the Dutch versions of the comics.
The Smurfs were so popular that they prompted their first animated film in 1965 – The Adventures of the Smurfs. In 1976, the movie The Smurfs and the Magic Flute was released in the US, and Smurf ‘culture” became a smash hit here. Of course, in 2011 we had the release of the movie Smurfs in 3D, which has opened up a love of the Smurfs to a whole new generation.
