Everyone is loving the ‘wonderful’ things this mum found in her son’s coat pocket

This is TOO cute.

A mum's photo of what she found inside her toddler son's coat has gone viral for the sweetest reason. Katie Munnik was getting ready to wash her four-year-old son's winter coat, and began emptying out the pockets - which is when she came across his mini-collection of keepsakes. She emptied out the contents of the pocket onto the table, and couldn't resist capturing a photo of the treasures he had amassed. The youngster's heartwarming collection of everyday items includes everything from a  toy snake to a crumpled up Pokémon card - and an assortment of almost-identical sized twigs. He had also held on to a bottle cap, some rocks, as well some 2p coins. Munnik tweeted alongside the photo:

“Found in the pockets of a four-year-old's winter coat before washing."

According to Munnik, they are. She clarified that her son sought out those sticks as they were "palm-length", adding:

"He said they are good to hold."

Others suggested ways for her to hold onto the treasures, so that she can show her son them when he is older. https://twitter.com/rachlikesrhythm/status/988852106344980481 https://twitter.com/JulietandBadger/status/988849153915740162 https://twitter.com/LaurelHounslow/status/988790199009230848
