According to the hospital, the tradition is a treat for families who can’t be home to celebrate the holiday.
This year’s costumes were reportedly inspired by The Cat in the Hat, Corduroy, Madeline, The Very Hungry Caterpillar and more.
Henry Ford says each baby will get to take their storybook and costume home with them.
The dress-up is also meant to inspire reading and promote parent-infant bonding, according to the hospital.
