When you put your kid down for a nap, you expect them to stay there, right? But a pair of siblings in Florida decided it was their mission to help their baby brother break free of his crib prison, and video of the brazen escape has gone viral.
It’s seriously the cutest breakout you’ll ever see
Florida dad Jason Eadie shared a TikTok of his daughter Brooklyn, 4, and son Blake, 3, encouraging their little brother Bryson, 2, to leave his crib behind and come out and play.
In the video that has almost 30 million views, Bryson seems hesitant at first to engage in this lawlessness. But he’s no match for the coaxing of his clever siblings.
@4kidscallmedadI’m speechless…
“Do you want to get out of your crib and play with me? I can teach you,” Blake can be heard telling Bryson.
“Lift your feet out of that, and put your feet right here,” he said, pointing to the dresser next to the crib. “Then you’re out.”
Bryson seems more interested in staying in his crib and napping, but soon sister Brooklyn enters the room to talk him out of that nonsense.
“You got it, you’re a big boy,” she encourages as Bryson relents, heaves his little leg over the edge of the crib, and begins his daring mission. Brooklyn gives him one more cheer on his quest for freedom.
“You got this!”
Bryson finally climbs onto the dresser, and Blake and Brooklyn help him down to begin playing. But not before helping their little brother put his glasses on so he can clearly see to their next adventure. The three bandits then run out of the room. Cue cheering from the internet.
“I’m speechless,” Jason captioned the video.
Commenters were quick to show their support for this impressive show of teamwork. “Respecting boundaries, enthusiastic encouragement, glasses, and up to no good. Perfect siblings,” one wrote.
Far from being angry at the sibling plot (and who could be?), dad Jason is proud of their ingenuity and support for one another. “I know I’m biased, but it’s honestly the sweetest thing I’ve ever seen,” he told Today Parents.
As adorable as it was, Jason didn’t want these naptime high jinks to become a regular thing, so he made a slight adjustment to the crib situation by moving the dresser out of climbing distance.
“No escape tonight,” he captioned the follow-up video.
@4kidscallmedadReply to @gillianbarcy will he escape tonight… that is the question.
