The Ping Pong Bandit!

Micah's current favorite TV show is The Backyardigans on Nickelodeon. One of his favorite episodes is "Blazing Paddles" featuring the Ping Pong Bandit! It is essentially a western in which they have ping pong showdowns instead of gun fights. The bad guy is the Ping Pong Bandit, and Micah loves to pretend to be him and do his signature move the "Bandit Slam It!" Micah dresses up in Daddy's cowboy boots and hat; we bought him a cheap paddle and ping pong ball to complete the look. He has a grand ole time playing ping pong in the wild west. Micah is actually really good at serving the ball and can volley it once in a while. It's really fun to watch him and hear him say "Tarnation!"
