He is .....BATMAN!!!

So you have a ripped spiderman costume and a four year old who REALLY needs to be a super hero what do you do?
Improvise.
One piece of black construction paper become a pair of batman ears.
A mask from a long past birthday party completes the look
One blue felt cape he got at preschool.
We had a problem with the required yellow belt but a folded length of yellow bias tape did the trick.
The black boots were first attempted in construction paper but proved problematic and were scrapped. We changed them out for black church socks. Perfect!
Last but not least the gloves, we tried light blue rubber gloves but those didn't work so we wnet for those super stretchey thing winter gloves.
His outfit now complete with his faithful side kick emily who kindly provided cape support when it was required. They flew around outside and saved the world and then came in for lunch. Sammy loves posing for his adoring Fan and loved showing his cool superhero poses. My crazy kids!
