This is the sweet moment a cheerful baby couldn't stop laughing at his dad's playful attempts to make him giggle.

Beau Beeston, one, was getting ready for bed when his dad, Liam Beeston, 33, started using his usual bedtime tricks to coax out some laughter.

Beau, who loves the animal decorations on his bedroom walls, burst into giggles as Liam tapped on them, pretending to "bring" the animals to life for him."

Mum Rachel Hind, 32, from Hartlepool, County Durham, said: "This is a nightly thing in our house."

"He has such an infectious laugh that it makes us laugh constantly. We decided to capture a little of it on film to share with family and friends."

"He's just such a happy-go-lucky little boy."
