(Don’t worry, none of these are those awful fails that are followed by a trip to urgent care or the ER.)

Everyone has to go through a lot of awful before they get to awesome, and since kids are pretty much new at everything, there is a wealth of awful that can be pretty entertaining.

Good parents encourage their kids to learn and grow and win. They also try not to crack up too much when their kid just… nails the opposite of winning. So hard.
 

Give it the ol’ razzle dazzle!

Everyone’s a winner if no one wins!

Going out on a limb on the stupid tree.

Lessons were learned. Trust issue lessons.

You’ve gotta get your feet wet somehow, right?

Even playing with toys can be a trial.

Started from the bottom now we’re here. Help?

Go for the gold! Someday maybe.

With great Power Wheels comes great… something.

Even the basics can be complicated.

Failure loves company.

All by himself. [sigh]

Playing wrong? Or picking his boogers right?

Bottom line, kids are amazing. It’s the best thing to watch them throw themselves at this world and come away with experience and knowledge and amazing video clips. Hahahahahahahaha! They’re so dang CUTE!
