Jimmy Kimmel hosted a game of Who Wants To Be A Millionaire for his children and his son’s reaction was beyond hilarious.

The presenter is set to host the return of the game show in the United States, which begins today [April 8]. And to mark the occasion, he decided to  put his kids’ knowledge to the test with a variety of questions about animals, Frozen, superheroes and Spanish.

His daughter, Jane, was super enthusiastic about it all (especially when it came to the Frozen question). Billy, however, made it about halfway through the game before losing his patience and asking his mum to come and help him down.

But things got even more hilarious when they reached the final question, in which a million pennies were up for grabs.

“Who is your favourite person?” Kimmel asked his kids, before the answers began to pop up: three of them said ‘Daddy’ while one said ‘Mommy’.

“Just because we’re doing this Millionaire game and nobody really is here, I have to say, just for this game, Dad,” Jane replied, as Billy settled on ‘mommy’.

Jane, meanwhile, turned to her mum – who was behind the camera – to adorably reassure her that she had only said that to win the game.

The million pennies – otherwise known as $10,000 – was donated to No Kid Hungry, an organisation “working to end child hunger in America today by ensuring that all children get the healthy food they need every day to thrive.”
