Invent your future! Encourage kids to imagine their strongest, wildest selves regularly with superhero costumes and power poses.

By Angie Chang (Co-Founder & Editor-in-Chief, Women 2.0)

Over spring break, undergraduate biology student and artist Alexandria Law started a mini art project. Her new blog Little Girls Are Better at Designing Superheroes Than You features pictures Alex took of girls wearing superhero costumes – alongside her drawings of the girls as actual superhero characters.

“Kids are more impressionable than you, but kids can also be less restricted by cultural gender norms than you. Kids are more creative than you, and they’re better at making superheroes than you,” she writes.

Perhaps we should listen to the next generation more – and help them imagine and invent the bold, wildly imaginative and strong versions of themselves.

Check out the full roster of girls and characters at Alex Law’s blog Little Girls Are Better at Designing Superheroes Than You.
