Spoiler Alert: Your Little One’s Future PhD Program Starts with Finger Painting and Giggles!
Picture the scene: your adorable mini-me sitting in a high chair, hands covered in paint, grinning from ear to ear. Who knew art could be this messy and this much fun?

r.Warning: Your Baby’s First Word Might Be "Peekaboo" If You Keep This Up!
Welcome to the world of peekaboo—an age-old tradition that continues to be the frontrunner in baby TED Talks.

Plus, your sound effects skills are bound to get an upgrade, and let's be honest, we're all here for it!
Feel free to take this game to the next level with a few hilarious twists—like using a napkin as a disappearing act prop. And when in doubt, a sudden "peekaboo" from behind a houseplant is cinematic gold.
