According to Susan Morrison on Quora, children follow their instincts and explore their environment to learn how things work. That’s also why they like to imitate adult activities.

"The ideas of play and toys are quite recent developments in human culture, and in the last 100 years, have morphed into an extreme emphasis on toys to buy to make money for toy manufacturers and sellers.
"Young children have not yet learned to be avid consumers, so they often get quickly bored with the shiny plastic stuff," Susan explains.

Mzansi netizens did not pass out on the opportunity to poke fun at the children's appearance as they compared the troublemakers to two Shaka Ilembe actors who are portrayed as zombies in the TV show.

Video of kids playing with white paint inside the house goes viral

In another story, Briefly News reported that little children have their unique and mischievous ways of humbling their parents right down to the core.

A video posted on TikTok by Genaro (@genarocortez07) shows two children playing with white paint inside a house. They were swimming in it, as they swooshed in the white substance, staining most of the floor and kitchen area without a care in the world.

One's jaw cannot help but drop at the sight of the mess, as most of the affected area is plastered with white paint. Shu, where and how does one even begin to clean that up?
