A very smart baby on social media has come up with an outside-the-box solution to this shape-fitting puzzle toy, and we can’t stop laughing! Grown-ups caught the most hilarious footage of this kid outwitting the brainteaser in seconds. Although the child’s methods were a bit unorthodox, they got results! This adorable video has already received over 22 million views online.
In the hysterical clip, Dad gave the baby a quick demonstration on how to use the puzzle toy. He picked up one of the colorful shapes scattered on the ground, then matched it to a cutout in a big, hollow box. The child watched studiously as their father inserted the blue semi-circle into the corresponding space. However, it seems that this kid took away a slightly different lesson from the tutorial.
After taking a second to assess the situation, the baby realized that there was a lid on the puzzle toy. So, instead of matching each block to its intended cutout, this kid decided to expedite the process. They opened up the top of the box and started dropping the blocks right inside!
As the baby scooped up the toy shapes and dumped them into the box, they seemed slightly annoyed. Did their father really have no idea that there was an easier way to put the blocks away?

“Work smart, not hard,” said one user.
Another joked, “Life’s already complicated, why complicate it more.”
Unfortunately, this method of “solving” the puzzle kind of undermines the point, which is to teach children about identifying different shapes. However, you could argue that the baby learned an even more valuable skill from the toy: how to complete a task more efficiently!
