23 Times Kid’s Actions Left Us Scratching Our Heads

We come across our child sleeping in the dog’s bed, wearing a motorcycle helmet as protection from a bee, or a letter blackmailing the tooth fairy, and we don’t understand what was going through our child’s mind. Even if these actions seem a bit unorthodox, they make sense to them. All is fair in children’s games.

Here at Bright Side, we celebrate these quirky ideas and are truly thankful to the parents who were in the right place at the right time to capture their kid’s actions.
