This is the amusing moment a toddler adorably played a game of 'balloonminton' with his grandmother.

Xiao Mumu, a one-year-old boy, bonded with his grandmum by playing badminton using an orange balloon as a makeshift shuttlecock at their home in Chongqing, China, on November 27.

Footage shows the child gently striking the balloon towards his grandmother.

They can be seen rallying the balloon back and forth.

The grandmother said: 'My grandchild is getting better and better at playing the game. I am just so happy that I can spend so much time with him.'

Badminton can help children develop better balance and coordination. It can also help them learn to react to their opponent's actions in split seconds.
