Show us your Little Hero…and win!

A collective sigh of relief is being breathed around Little Hero Headquarters where Allison is icing her ’sewer’s wrist’ and recovering from a very busy and satisfying Halloween season. Thank you to the many customers who ordered Little Hero Capes and Gear for their little hero’s Halloween costumes!

It’s always fun to see our capes soar around the globe and so we’ve decided to propose a little trade – email us a photograph of your trick-or-treater dressed in their Little Hero outfits and we’ll enter your name into a drawing for a free cape, mask and power cuffs of your choice! (It can never hurt to have a spare – or perhaps you know another lucky little kid who needs their own!)

Please read the fine print:

Only one photo/entry per child, please. Photos must be emailed to Allison@LittleHeroCapes.com by Saturday, November 28th at 11:59 p.m. EST. One winner will be drawn at random. We would love to share your photo here on the Little Hero’s Blog – however, if you would prefer not to share your photos please let us know in your entry email.

News from Little Hero Headquarters!

Dress up season is upon us!
It’s also the busiest time of year at Little Hero Capes.

Allison, Little Hero’s cape maker extraordinaire, will be summoning all of the super powers she can muster to make certain every kid that wants to be a Little Hero this Halloween will be able to dress the part. While she and her trusty sidekick (her sewing machine) work at lightning speed, I’ll be joining the team as a Little Hero Capes Blog contributor.

By way of introduction, my name is Robert Mahar – I’m a blogger, shop owner and a huge believer in Allison’s vision of empowering young imaginations and encouraging kids to be real-world heroes through acts of kindness and involvement in their community. I’ll be here to keep you up to date on all Little Hero happenings, write about real world heroes that inspire, share ways your little hero can be a force for good and post all manner of kid friendly fun.

Allison will continue to share ‘AHA! moments,’ the adventures of her family and life at Little Hero headquarters. And of course, she’s always available to field questions and respond to your comments and inquiries at allison@littleherocapes.com.

In honor of super hero origins, I’m sharing selections from an online archive of ‘visual sounds’ gleaned from vintage comic strips! You can find links to the individual sources below the image collage. Pow!
