Five years ago, a dad named Sholom Ber Solomon went viral with photos of him and his daughter doing all sorts of silly activities. The dad and daughter's bond is still growing strong today, and now they also include sister Olivia, born in 2019, to participate in their wacky photoshoots. Their photos consist of dress-ups, from raccoons eating by the dumpster to mermaids by the pool.

This adorable family lives in San Diego, United States, and has conquered social media by having more than 304,000 followers on Instagram.

If you would like to see Zoe when she was just a baby here on Bored Panda, see part 1.

Dress-up is a game that everyone has played as children. Putting on your mom's heels or wearing dad's glasses is the peak fashion when you are 4 years old. But parents participating in dress-up is found to be both beneficial and engaging for kids.

We asked Sholom about his interest in such activities and where it started. Sholom answered: “I always enjoyed being silly and taking ridiculous photos, but when my first daughter Zoe was born, she was the ultimate inspiration and a muse, and I instantly just wanted to take fun photos with her so she could have a unique album to look back on later in life. The ideas for fun creative content with the kids are abundant and actually limitless - all I have to do is think up a silly scenario, chuck a wig on, and put the kids in adorable costumes, and voila.”

    Playing with kids or being engaged in common activities helps build stronger relationships, and by the number of dress-ups this family has pulled off, we can assume their bond is pretty strong. Sholom commented: “The kids love taking what we call in the house 'silly pictures with dad'. It really is just an extension of the playtime we share together, and when you accumulate the number of costumes and accessories as we have in our house, every moment has the ability to be a fun one.”

    Having had so many dress-ups and still counting, there must be at least one that stood out by being the most entertaining to make. Sholom shared: “I think my favorite shoot was when I was a princess, and the kids gave me a makeover. That was the most enjoyable purely due to the fact that the kids enjoyed that one the most… From painting my nails to almost poking my eye out with eyelid pencil... It was a non-stop giggle fest.”

    After going viral, we were wondering how people reacted to Sholom and his daughters’ photoshoots. He wrote: “What was most fascinating about people’s reaction was that it didn't make a difference what language you spoke or what age you were... there was such a positive global reaction from kids to grandmas, which has been incredible to see.”

    And lastly, he added: “I just wholeheartedly appreciate the positive reaction the photos and videos have received and hope it brings a little joy to anyone who comes across them.”

    What Sholom's family practices here is a great example and reminder to all parents to be more involved with their children. They grow up so fast, and creating memories during their childhood is super important.

    So, fellow Pandas, do you play or engage in unique activities with your kids? Share in the comments.
