Many parents try some tricks to keep their children entertained and behaved.
But one father may have just come up with the best idea for his kids – taking a nap while keeping four children entertained.
Monica Weber went shopping when her genius husband challenged their children to draw him. When she came back home, she found all four kids on the floor trying to draw while Michael curled up with a comfy blanket over him.
“’I’ll keep the kids so you can grocery shop in peace’….then I come home to this,” Monica wrote on Facebook.
“I’m pretty sure he’s the most brilliant man I’ve ever known. He has them doing ‘realism art’ while he ‘poses’ AKA naps. The winner gets a chocolate, but let’s be honest, @michael.w.weberjr is the one winning lmao. Nice one Michael, nice one!”
Her post quickly went viral with more than 35,000 shares and over 28,000 reactions. Many Facebook users tagged their partners, giving them an example of ‘smart parenting.’
One parent commented: “When you ask how come our son always behaves for me but not for you… this is the kinda s**t I’m pulling.”
Another wrote: “Wow my kids would totally fall for this and sit there for hours.”
A third said: “This guy has blocked fatherhood.”
Another witty dad has also come up with a genius trick for his child as he doesn’t want to go to McDonald’s.
He created his very own Happy Meal for his daughter Chloe, and there’s no doubt that it is cheaper and healthier.
The 37-year-old dad said he spends only $2.20 on his version of Happy Meals which also comes with a toy.
“Parenting tip from me. Next time you’re at McDonald’s, ask the staff nicely for some spare packaging (they don’t seem to mind when you explain),” he wrote.
“Then, when your child wants ‘a happy meal’ and you can’t be bothered to leave the house or wanna save the pennies, you can just make them up one at home. Just don’t forget the toy.”
