This dad decided to record his baby’s reaction to seeing Man of Steel. The kid looks barely able to sit up, but as soon as Superman takes to the sky, his face is filled with awe. In possibly the best baby review of a super hero movie ever, he sums it up like this:

(Loose translation)

“Wow. WOW, WOOOOW!”

Hey, the man is flying, right? That’s pretty much a “WOW” moment.

Super kids, super childhoods

It’s amazing the way many children identify with certain super heroes. I was a clothes peg-bath towel hero myself. I vanquished nettles with a stick and herded (killer) ants into jars. I scaled walls and leapt off the garage roof. A pair of gloves gave me extra powers, and a mask made me invisible to all.

I’d mix up super snacks (sweets dumped in juice) and have dangerous swords and ray guns made out of old cardboard boxes.

Now I’m a retired super hero, my secret skills hidden away from the world, but occasionally I do like to pass them on quietly to my children. After all, there are always villains to be subdued.

Which super hero does your child love the most?
