Our Superheroes
Our good friends at Planet Anime Kansas City know superheroes and many of their nearest and dearest friends will be joining us for this amazing event. Have your cameras ready for all the photos you’ll get of your little one with their favorite superheroes at our superheroes photo stops sponsored by Fry Orthodontics. They’ll be easy to find, just look for the adorable balloon installations from Balloonista!
