Every month, we pose a thoughtful question to local schoolchildren to spark their wonderful imaginations. Here’s what they have to say: If your Dad were a superhero, who would he be and why?

“He would be Basketball Man, because he is good at basketball. He would have gadgets like a basketball that never misses a shot and springs that can make him dunk.”  Trevor, 8

“He’d be Barbecue Dad. He would have cool gadgets, like bombs shaped like bones from steak, slippery barbecue sauce and spices that make people sneeze and don’t pay attention.”  Vicki, 9

“He would be Salsa Specialist. His gadgets are jalapeño peppers, bell peppers and jalapeño hot sauce. The jalapeño hot sauce is super-secret.”  Gina, 9

“He would be Computer Commando. His gadgets would be a laptop, a charger, a wire that can stop any time bomb and a pair of pliers. He would stop the evil Electronic Man from exploding the world with a time bomb.”  Adeline, 9

“He would be Super Skater, because he skates very well. He would skate the road of justice. He could skate up to a villain and put him in his rightful place.”  Elle, 9

“He would be Dental Dad. He would have braces knuckles, teeth bombs, floss rope and sticky toothpaste. He can knock the villains out with his braces knuckles.”  Peter, 8

“He would be Golf Man. He would have golf tees that burn the criminal’s eyes. Golf Man can’t fly, but he can do other amazing things.”  Kelly, 8

“He would be Plumbing Man. He would have a Plumbing Mobile with a Wrench Master. If I was in danger, the Plumbing Man would save me.”  Nathan, 10
