Daycare’s ‘hilarious’ poses—a 7-month-old seated in a bowl, perched on a tiny sofa, and a bow shifted low—ignited a 2.1 million-view video tsunami as a mom’s EPSN-faced caption infused humour into a universal truth: daycare picture day is its own genre.
What Actually Happened at Picture Day
Each daycare on the planet has a picture day. Some elevate it into high-concept performance art. KC Kids Photo from Kansas City, MO, staged Julie Haywood’s 7-month-old in a seriiously unserious tableau: tucked into a bowl, leaning against a tiny sofa, and with her beige bow pushed into what Julie termed “silly” orientation
Haywood got the news, pulled up People on her phone, waited for her inbox to ping, and then she saw it. “I dressed her normal-mom-admirably in a mint-green knit two-piece and added a beige bow,” Julie tells People. “The ‘poses’—cuffed in a bowl, sofa mini-me—were downright hilarious the second I got them in-hand.”
