A story about an adorable two-year-old boy in China who helped his mother with the housework has gone viral on mainland social media.
A video of the Shanghai boy filmed last week shows him explaining in front of the camera that he helps his mother with housework including washing clothes and mopping the floor, Star Video reported.
In the viral video the boy is shown crouched on the floor of the family’s bathroom over a green washtub filled with soapy water and with a T-shirt, a white glove and a washboard in front of him.
The boy then grabs the T-shirt and plunges it into the washtub with a back-and-forth motion as he starts washing.
Not satisfied with just helping with clothes washing, the diligent boy has also learned how to mop floors.
The toddler’s mother said he started learning by watching her work and imitating her as she cleaned, but said she had been surprised to find he is very good at cleaning.
