Superbaby stories involved the premise of a toddler with the powers of Superman. These stories were almost always humorous and often had baby Clark innocently "playing" with potentially disastrous consequences-- which were always, of course, averted at the last second by the Baby of Steel. Another recurring theme was the Kents trying to cover up or explain away the odd sights around Smallville.
