What is it about boys and superheroes?
Josh has never seen a single Spiderman episode, and yet he is obsessed with Spiderman.
(Of course, his obsessions seem to change on an almost weekly basis: first it was Super Why! Then it was Buzz Lightyear. The superhero-obsession, however, seems to have lasted longer than the others.)
Josh even begged me to learn the Spiderman theme song so that I could teach it to him. So, I went on YouTube and we watched the introduction to the 1967 Cartoon; then, we downloaded the lyrics and learned the song. Yep! I can sing you every word in that 3-verse song.
So, lately that is our play time- we make believe that I'm the "bad guy" and Josh is Spiderman (or occasionally, he's Batman or Superman). He either spins his web to capture me, or, more often than not, he "pows" me, and I fall on the ground and we re-enact this scene over and over again....!
(Can you see why I love having outings or play dates with other kids?) :)
