Celebrate National Superhero Day with PJ Masks

April 30, 2016 by Denise Courter

 

What better way to celebrate #NationalSuperheroDay than with the characters from the Disney Junior hit series PJ Masks! Our guest blogger, Sandra Velez and her little one attended a superhero playdate at the New York City Fire museum.

Superheros come in all, shapes, colors and sizes. This was evident at the NYC Fire Museum. It was a very fitting way to teach kids that real heros exist. After arriving a bit early we walked the space that had fun NYC FDNY uniforms for children to try on as well as life size fire trucks! We proceeded to the third floor and found a fun filled play area. Here the children got to play and interact while coloring and chatting. The children went into a screening and were floored at the great shows! The colors and story had them all entertained from beginning to end!

All great things must come to an end. Catboy, Owlette and Gekko closed out the event by greeting all the kids and flexing in photo opportunities.

Goodies were given to allow us to keep the fun rolling at home. The PJ Masks Official Hero Celebration Kit, included exclusive downloadable PJ Masks character masks, activity sheets, invites and much more!

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
