TOMORROW is Batman Day – when fans around the world will celebrate the caped crusader.
This year also marks 85 years since the superhero was created, and there are activities to pay homage, including special screenings of Batman films in cinemas.
Tomorrow is Batman day, celebrating 85 years since the superhero was created[/caption]But you don’t need to splash out to get involved.
Here are free or affordable Batman activities . . .
MEET A HERO: There will be Batman character visits at selected The Entertainer stores every Saturday until October 19.
Follow @entertainer_toys on Instagram for information.
There is also a costume character visit in Hamleys in the Westfield complex at White City, West London this Sunday.
For older fans, Batman Unmasked: The Exhibition is on now at Covent Garden, central London featuring a collection of props and costumes.
General tickets are £24.50 but if you are a group of ten or more you will pay £19.60 each.
FACE PAINTING: If you are in London this Sunday, there will be Batman face-painting at Hamleys’ Regent Street store.
Otherwise, get a Halloween face-painting kit for £1 at Poundland, and create your own Batman design.
There are lots of free tutorials on YouTube that you can then follow to create picture-perfect face art on your child’s face.
MAKE A MASK: If you have spare black paper, card or even scrap material you can use it to create Batman masks for little ones.
Put the paper against your child’s face and make marks so you know how wide to make the mask — plus markers at the top of the cheekbones and forehead.
Draw the shape of the mask before cutting.
You just need two little pointy ears either side at the top and two almond shapes for the eyes, the bottom curves over the cheeks and nose.
Make small holes either side of the mask before threading round string, ribbon or elastic to fit your child’s head.
