This video of a toddler imitating Muslim teachers has gone viral online

A video of a little boy has been making rounds online for an adorable reason. Twitter user, Kylia Merrell recently posted a video of her little brother doing something that confused her at first. She said the family could not understand why the child "pulls a mat of his diaper bag and lays on it."

Eventually the family figured it out. The young boy was imitating his Muslim teachers working at his day care centre and had picked up the action when he saw them praying and now "he does it too."

Here is the video:

"My brother has been doing this thing where he pulls a mat out of his diaper bag and lays on it like this and we couldn’t figure out what he was doing. A few of his teachers at daycare are Muslim and we realized he’s seen them pray and now he does it too so precious"

She also noticed that the boy only does it on mats or blankets and people were amazed at the amount of observation little children have:
