Dad comes up with a ‘creative’ way to take naps and it’s all kinds of hilarious

How have we never thought of this before.

While a mum’s strength is often her ability to multi-task I think a dad’s strength lies in the idea that where there is a will there’s a way.

My husband has a bad back and often gets the kids to drive their toy cars up and down his back. He gets a back rub and the kids think that it’s great craic.

I’m telling you where there is a will dads will find a way. My husband isn’t the only dad getting ‘creative’ either with his approach to parenting as this viral photo shows.

Mum Monica Weber recently came home to find her husband literally sleeping on the job after he told her he would watch the children while she went out shopping.

Was the house in chaos? Were the children running wild? No, they were contently watching their dad why he napped and Monica explains why;

“”I’ll keep the kids so you can grocery shop in peace” ….then I come home to this.

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.”

So simple, but all the best ideas are.

Both of my children love art and spend most of their free time painting and drawing so I’m actually afraid to share this story with my husband as I’m pretty sure I’ll never see him awake again.

I also don’t want to share this trick with him as I fully intend on using it myself some time to catch up on some well needed shut eye.

Hey us mums may be the multi taskers but that doesn’t mean we don’t use dad hacks from time to time too.
