Comics and Marvel films such as the new Spider Man movie, also help to foster creativity. While many Marvel films aren’t suitable for children, the comics and the latest animated film are perfect for inquisitive minds. They encourage kids to draw, paint and create stories just like the ones they read in the Marvel Universe.

Unsurprisingly, Avengers is up there with the best of the best. The Amazing Spider Man Annual, Thor, Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk are also popular choices. Think about the characters your child typically likes best in the Marvel Universe and then search for a comic which features them.
