This is the adorable moment a tot figured out how to get Alexa to play music.

Hudson Jones, now six, was caught on camera sneaking into his sister's room and trying to get the smart speaker to play a song.

His mum, Jennifer H. Jones, 50, said she had seen him playing with Alexa the day before but wasn't sure how he'd managed to make it work.

Curious, she hid behind the door to watch him try again.

An adorable video shows Hudson, who has Down syndrome speaking in gibberish and repeatedly trying to get Alexa to respond.

Eventually, the device starts playing "All You Wanna Do" from the musical Six."

Jennifer, from Jacksonville Beach, Florida, said: "He kept trying to talk to Alexa but his gibberish was hard for her to understand. "

"But he didn't give up and he finally got her to play a song."

"This was the second time he had gotten Alexa to play music for him. "

"The first time was the day before, and Alexa chose a Cardi B song lol. "

"Not exactly appropriate for him but we thought it was funny."
