A mom-of-two has revealed the embarrassing moment her 'creative' five-year-old made his own mask to transform himself into a superhero – using the sanitary liner from the gusset of ladies' swimwear.

Laura Whitworth (39) was getting little Jonah changed after his swimming lesson in the female changing rooms when he decided to entertain himself and discovered the discarded item.
