Homemade Hero

Are heroes born or are heroes made?  Of late Parker's love for superheroes has transformed him into many heroes.  With the blockbuster Avengers coming out, Parker has turned his hero fix from Buzz and Spider Man to Captain America and Iron Man.  He watches Avengers cartoons on marvelkids.com and checks out the latest hero attire on amazon.com.  Not only does he get his fair share of cartoons but he has become the embodiment of Avengers.  Frisbees have become shields (Captain America), ice cream buckets helmets (Iron Man), and rubber-bands made into bow and arrows (Hawkeye).  Often he can be found talking to himself as if he were conversing with Iron Man himself.  Just last week we scoured the house pretending like we were Captain America with our shields that shot the bad guys.

Iron Man or "Machine Man" (Ice Cream bucket and toy rocket strapped to arm)



Captain America Shield (Frisbee attached to back)



Hawkeye (Homemade arrow holder - cup)

I think you can make a case that Parker was born to be a hero, that is with some homemade help!
