I am a sucker for superhero-window-washers-at-children’s-hospital stories. Partly because we are a family of nerds. Partly because my son-in-law is a Spiderman fan. But mostly because my son spent a lot of time in hospitals as a little tyke, and at a certain age, superhero window washers would have made his day.

Superheros Climbing the Walls so Hospitalized Kids Won’t

So a story about superhero window washers at Mattel Children’s Hospital* at UCLA was welcome good news. According to a story out of KTTV in Los Angeles, “Chase Child Life Program sponsored ‘Super Window Washers’ where real life window washers, dressed up as super-heroes, entertained the kids.”

Superhero Shout Out Time

Now’s your chance to give a shout out. Do superheros wash windows at a children’s hospital near you?  Tell about them in the comment box, and if there’s an online article, share the link, too. And if you think any of them would come and wash my windows, please let me know. I’d love to schedule an appointment for when my family of nerds is home. They would love it!

*After a thorough search of the Mattel Children’s Hospital website, I found nothing to confirm that the hospital is named after generous donors from the Mattel Toy Company. But if was, don’t you think the female nurses would be named Barbie and wear teeny-tiny designer scrubs and high-heeled Crocs while the male nurses would sport deep tans and be named Ken?
