Mum faces epic clean-up after baby takes 'Vaseline challenge'
It's the number one rule of parenting young children - if there is silence, it means that the kids are doing something they're not supposed to. One mum learnt this the hard, and very messy, way when she discovered her baby had covered herself head-to-toe in Vaseline.
The mum posted a TikTok video, where she can be seen using the empty Vaseline container to scrape the excess Vaseline from the baby's hair, while the baby looks into the camera helplessly.
Parents everywhere related to cute clip - but felt for the mum who had to clean the mess up.

Clean-up was a lengthy process. TikTok
"I was like why is she shaving the baby's head then I realised what's happening," said one commenter.
"Mummy forgot the golden rule... NEVER BE COMFORTABLE WHEN THESE MINI VERSIONS OF US BECOME SUDDENLY SILENT!!" said one parent.
Others assured the mum she was not the first parent to face the same clean-up, with one woman saying all three of her kids had done the "Vaseline challenge" when they were little.
"Vaseline has a thing that attracts kids I swear," said one person. "I think it's time we contact Unilever and ask what is it they put in Vaseline," suggested another.
