Popular comic book characters like Batman have been around for a long time. Their adventures have been depicted in many other forms other than the original comic books that initially featured their adventures. Movies, books, games, comic books toys, and many other depictions and versions have come out and yet their fans have never grown tired of them, if anything, they seem to be gaining even more fans among the little kids of today. And one of the most popular and enduring is indeed Batman, who has been around for so long now that actual generations have thrilled to his many adventures.
My own kids are big fans of Batman, and have been steadily building up their collection. That was not really something that they got from me since I am more of a Spider-man fan, but I guess all the Saturday morning cartoons that they’ve seen of the caped crusader got them hooked and made them wish that they’d be Robin even for a day, so that they can patrol and keep Gotham City safe together with the Dark Knight. We are happily supportive of their collection of Batman stuff and merchandise, as long as it does not go overboard and it doesn’t affect their studies.
The Bat Watch
As serious collectors of Batman items, my kids were recently surprised that there’s a particular item that seems to be missing from their collection. That’s a Batman watch, which also surprised me since watches based on the character are sure to be easily available. And true enough, a short search yielded plenty of options as far as Batman watches are concerned. So I quickly tried to list down a few possibilities, as I would like to buy each of the kid’s one Batman watch as a surprise gift. It would be a fitting conclusion to the discovery that one prominent Batman item is still missing from their growing collection.
Here are a couple of nice options for batman watches for kids:
• Armitron 80073 Kid’s Character Batman Watch – This Batman watch from Armitron is certainly a must-have for Bat fans wanting to tell the time through the caped crusader’s image. The said image is also great, with Batman seemingly leaping right at you from the inside the watch itself. Sells for about $17.00.
• Flik Flak Batman the brave and the bold FFL004 Boys Watch – drawing inspiration from one of the popular series that featured batman and is now also a popular animated series, this watch is surely great to look at while delivering overall quality. It has a silver aluminum quartz and features black and yellow dial, black and silver bezel that goes with a fabric strap that has a Batman theme. Priced at about $29.00.
