Every kid has a phase. One month it’s a cape over their pyjamas, the next it’s astronauts, then it’s dinosaurs for two years straight. A sheet where they are the superhero, with their face, their hair and the gap in their teeth, lands differently from a pack of someone else’s character.

Pick the scene closest to what they’re into and the form opens on it: superheroes, space, mermaids, pirates, dinosaurs, wizards, unicorns and more. Add a photo and generate. If their favourite comes from a particular show or film, describe the look instead: a red-and-blue masked hero, or an ice princess in a snowy palace. We can’t draw trademarked characters, but we can dress your kid in the same spirit.

What people use these for

• Party bags with a theme the birthday kid actually picked
• Reward charts for a kid who would do anything for a superhero sticker
• Drink bottles, lunchboxes and school books
• A present from a grandparent that matches this month’s obsession
