Jesse Tyler Ferguson admits this ‘rookie mistake’ with his kids

Jesse Tyler Ferguson admits he made an amateur mistake regarding his kids’ Halloween costumes this year.

“I fell into that trap of buying Halloween costumes six weeks too early,” he told Page Six at the Broadway opening of “Sunset Boulevard” on Sunday night.

“That’s like a rookie mistake,” the “Modern Family” star — who shares sons Beckett, 4, and Sullivan, 1, with husband Justin Mikita — jokingly added.

Ferguson, 48, explained that Beckett has now changed his mind “a few times.”

“We were going to go as a family of skeletons and he wants to branch off and go as a tarantula and I just saw in our Amazon cart that Justin put in a tarantula costume because he’s the weak one,” Ferguson joked.

Last year, the family went with a dinosaur theme.

The Tony winner added that perhaps he and Mikita will go as Cole Escola and Conrad Ricamora, who play Mary Todd Lincoln and Abraham Lincoln, respectively, in “Oh, Mary!”

Besides struggling to get everyone’s Halloween costumes together, Ferguson has been busy.

The actor told us his podcast, “Dinner’s on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson,” “is going really strong.”

He’s also prepping for his return to the stage.

“I’m going to be doing something on the West End which hasn’t been announced and I’m going to be doing Shakespeare in the Park next summer.”

Ferguson will be appearing in “Twelfth Night” alongside Lupita Nyong’o, Sandra Oh and Peter Dinklage.

“Not too shabby,” he joked.

Other celebs at the Broadway revival included Brooke Shields, David Foster and Katharine McPhee, Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos, Jessica Chastain and the show’s composer, Andrew Lloyd Webber.

The Post gave the show a rave, calling it “Broadway’s most exhilarating show in years.”
