Grown-ups:  You have full permission to adapt any Mission in any way for the activity to be fun for your TinySuperhero! Use the steps below if they are helpful, and do it differently if they are not! Simply spending intentional time with your TinySuperhero is beneficial to their growing superpowers!

Hope Mission Instructions

Step 1

Gather your supplies:  colored paper, scissors, glue stick, tape, straws

Step 2

Create beautiful flowers as a reminder to ourselves and others that Hope never stops blooming!

Below are instructions for one way to create beautiful paper flowers! Feel free to get creative and make flowers in a totally different way if you prefer!

Paper Flower Instructions

1. Cut thin strips of paper. You will want anywhere between 6 and 16 strips for each flower. You can make the strips any length or width, but guidance, strips that are 6" long and .75" wide work really well!

2. Next, put glue on the end of the strips of paper and join the edges together to form individual petals.

3. When you have glued all the petals it’s time to start to start assembling your flower.  Cut out a circle for the center of the flower.  You can trace a bottle cap or cut it free hand.

4. Start glueing the petals to the circle forming a cross. Then continue to place each petal diagonally from each petal until you have used all the petals or you are happy with you flower!

5. Once the glue has dried turn the flower over and use tape to attach a straw to the back of the paper flower!

Step 3

Take a photo of you with your flower (and Cape if possible)! You'll use this photo when you submit your Mission!

Step 4

It is important for you to remember that Hope is a superpower that comes back again and again. Keep one or more flowers nearby as a reminder!

Then, it's time to share our Hope and remind others that their Hope always returns, too! Think of people in your life who you would like to share this with and give them a flower as well!  (Grandparents, teachers, therapists, nurses, friends, relatives...)

This Mission was live in May 2024, but the Patch & Mission Kit are available in the Shop! ➡️

Mission Program FAQ

Who can participate in the Mission Program?

All kids are welcome to participate! If there are 3 kids in your family, all 3 can earn a Patch. You just need to complete a submission for each participant individually to ensure they receive their Patch. Only the current month's Mission is free.  After the month expires, the Patch will be available in the shop! TinySuperheroes can participate from anywhere in the world!
 

No Cape is needed to participate in the program, but if your child has not been nominated for their official Cape, you can do so here: tinysuperheroes2.myshopify.com/pages/nomination-landing-page-2

How long do I have to redeem my Mission Kit?

Each month's Mission's claim codes are valid during that month's mission and for 45 days after. (Shipping charges will apply.)

My code is not working or I need help claiming my Mission Kit!

Contact our TSH team at patches@tinysuperheroes.com for assistance. We are happy to help!

How many Missions can I submit at one time?

You can submit up to 8 Missions in one submission.  You will receive a code that will will cover the cost of the number of participants you submitted.  You will want to add all of them to your cart before you checkout with the code.

Why do I have to pay for shipping?

TinySuperheroes charges a small amount for shipping & handling on monthly missions to help us sustain our commitment to offer free merchandise through the Mission Program.

What is the Autopilot Program?

We heard from several parents that their kids love participating in the Monthly Missions, but sometimes they miss a month or forget to submit their Mission.

 

The Autopilot is a solution to that problem.  The Mission Program remains as it always has, and during each month you have the opportunity to claim that Mission Kit for free (shipping charges will apply).

 

However, the Autopilot Program allows you to pay $7/month, and we will automatically mail the Mission Kit to you each month.  There is also an annual option. You can pay one time for the entire year, and receive the Mission Kit in your mail each month automatically.  You can read more or sign up at https://tinysuperheroes.com/collections/autopilot

How much does the Autopilot Program cost?

1 Mission Kit per month = $7 per month

2 Mission Kits per month = $12 per month

3 Mission Kits per month = $18 per month

4 Mission Kits per month = $24 per month

5 Mission Kits per month = $30 per month

6 Mission Kits per month = $36 per month

7 Mission Kits per month = $42 per month

8 Mission Kits per month = $48 per month
