We love this idea for creating custom superhero toys featured over at Teawagontales. Have the kids design their own characters and build them out of felt pieces. You’ll probably need to help with the sewing, but the end result is a one-of-a-kind hero that the kids can dream up stories about and take on countless adventures.
