From Superheroes to Star Wars

I know boys love super heroes, especially since they seem to come out with a movie about them every couple of years that then affects all things for sale. Everything from toothbrushes to water bottles to pads of paper and pencils is covered in whatever superhero is in season. My boys were obsessed for awhile, especially Aram, who would spend all day dressed up as superhero and even wear the costume out of the house when we would let him.

But recently my boys changed from superheroes to Star Wars. It was a real right of passage for Jasper when he was 4 years old. Dad had told stories or reacted moments from the original trilogy with him for months before. So it made sense that Aram then too made the switch to battling the dark force, following his brother's lead. Don't get me wrong, they still love Batman, Superman, and Flash Gordon, to name a few, but majority of the time they now adopt the Luke Skywalker persona complete with costume and light saber for battles against the dark side.


Even Olde gets into the mood of renacting Star Wars sometimes...
