KANSAS CITY, MO -- The babies at the neonatal intensive care unit at St. Luke's Hospital in Kansas City, Missouri, prove you're never too young to go trick-or-treating.

A caring effort from the nurses and volunteers with The March of Dimes outfitted the babies in adorable handmade felt costumes for the holiday, ABC News reports.

The families also received a "trick or treat, smell my feet" card with the newborns' tiny footprints and a Halloween book.
