A father in China has come up with a creative way to sneak in a power nap while being put on daddy duties.
The exhausted man, filmed lying on a bed with his infant son, drew a pair of fake eyes on his eyelids to make the child believe he was still awake.
The quick-witted father even put on a recording of him singing a nursery rhyme to help put the baby to sleep.

The baby, thinking he still has his father’s full attention, is also filmed dosing off comfortably as the adult takes a stealthy nap with tissue stuffed in his ears as earplugs

The baby, thinking he still has his father’s full attention, is also filmed dosing off comfortably as the adult takes a stealthy nap with tissue stuffed in his ears as earplugs.
The humorous clip, believed to be filmed by the mother, is part of a compilation video released by Chinese news site K618.cn titled ‘Perfunctory ways of fathers taking care of their children’.
Other nerve-wracking clips show a father continuing to play computer games after strapping his son to his chest with a baby carrier.

Another video shows an expectant dad attending an antenatal class, only to clumsily twist the head of the baby mannequin so hard that it popped off.
The video, published on Monday, has already gathered 4.17 million views on Weibo, with net users – many of them parents themselves – commenting that these ‘careless fathers’ are the reason why the stereotype exists, that women are considered better caretakers.
Mothers often remain as the primary caretaker in Chinese households, and stay-at-home dads are rare as men are expected to be the breadwinners.

Another clip shows a father continuing to play computer games after strapping his son to his chest with a baby carrier
‘You can tell that the father is very inexperienced in taking care of his baby!’ one person said on the Chinese microblogging site.
‘This is so funny! What a clever man,’ another user said. ‘Many fathers would be copying him now.’
‘This actually shows that men should be learning how to take care of their babies properly and not leave everything to their wives,’ one comment read.
‘As a mother myself, watching these videos makes me so nervous!’ one user said.
‘At least the fathers are demonstrating good effort in helping out,’ another user said.
