ESCAPE ARTISTS AT WORK

When you have more than one child, you really want them to be friends.

Great friends, preferably.

But what happens when an older brother wants to bust out his younger brother so they can play?

Is that naughty, or adorable?

Trusting a three year old with a one year old seems like a recipe for disaster, but you gotta love this little boy’s determination.

Ollie just wanted to play with his little bro. And Finn was keen to be a part of the mischief.

Ollie has a whole strategy worked out. He drags a chair and manages to catapult it into the cot without hurting Finn.

Then he stabilises the chair and gets Finn to climb onto it and helps him out by holding him and gently placing him down on the carpet.

It’s all captured on CCTV, so their parents had no idea about what the boys are up to.

It’s lovely to see this camaraderie between the two, although I’m pretty sure that ten minutes into the play session one of them would have gotten cranky at the other one and bopped them on the head. But that’s life with siblings, isn’t it?

I wonder what their parents said when they discovered the jailbreak?
