When you are playing hide and seek, there are two things you have to be careful of- blue socks and sunsets. This kid nearly won the game if it weren’t for his shadow and those tiny socks.

A couch isn’t supposed to have chubby legs. I’m probably imagining things here.

See that dedication? Clearly, that kid deserves an award. He’s staying still as if no one can see him.

The open cabinet was a good decoy. Unfortunately, those white socks gave her away. If only the kid wore dark-colored socks, she could have won the game.

Toy or not, I’m pretty sure alligators aren’t supposed to be standing up. And even if they could, I don’t think they’d be happy to have a tiny kid help them out.

When kids can’t see you, they think that you won’t be able to see them. This photo proves that.

This kid isn’t just a pro at hide-and-seek. She seemed to be an expert in scaring people, too.

These kids decided that the best hiding spot in their home is in the middle of the kitchen. Since there’s no space for them to hide there, they just made one using a blanket.

This kid used to be a pro at hide-and-seek. That’s until the tree decided to betray him.

This is one of the best things about having lots of toys. You can actually use them as part of your camouflage when you’re playing hide-and-seek. Just make sure that you have your entire body hidden.

Looking at those books, this kid clearly got some help getting into that spot. Nonetheless, it doesn’t make her any less of a champion.

Some kids are inseparable. They even apply the idea when they’re playing games. Well, who are parents to complain? It makes finding children so much easier.

This is what happens when you run out of time. You just hide yourself the best way you can with whatever you can grab with your hands.

He’s doing an awesome job. I nearly missed him if it wasn’t for his head. Next time, mom should get a longer cabinet.

It’s hard to understand kids’ logic when it comes to hide-and-seek. Well, I guess the element of surprise is what makes the game fun.

This kid isn’t just great at hiding. It’s safe to say that he’s good in pretending, too. He’s probably using the same technique for nap time.

No, you’re not seeing things. That’s clearly a kid hiding inside a cabinet and he’s found the best spot. Even his parent had a hard time finding him.

This parent has a good sense of self-control. If I were her, I’d probably tickled this kid’s feet until he comes out of his little box.

This is a bit hard to explain to the neighbors. I mean, just look at the kid. He doesn’t even look like he’s hiding.

Having the same color doesn’t mean you’re blending in. Sometimes, it can also make you stand out from your environment.

Creative but not effective. Who puts a lampshade in the middle of the doorway? If he moved a bit to his left, it would have worked.

I would have probably screamed if I saw my kid like that. It looked like there’s been an accident and the plastic box fell on top of him.

No matter how good you are in hiding, you won’t win if there’s a mirror around. Find a different spot or move the mirror.

This kid may not be that good in hiding but she’s definitely a pro in looking adorable. I’d probably just play along if this was my child.

This little girl is quite clever. She found a good hiding spot and the perfect camouflage to hide.

Her parents probably took longer than they’re supposed to in locating her. She actually fell asleep in her hiding spot. Poor kid.

This photo looks like it’s been taken out of a horror movie. I’d get nightmares just from looking at it.

This kid thinks like a cat. If he fits, he sits. It’s quite funny how her bum is sticking out like that.

This is probably one of the reasons why you shouldn’t play hide-and-seek with 2-year-old kids. Apart from the fact that they are good, they are also great in finding the creepiest hiding spots.

Container? Check. Cover? Check. This is nearly an effective hiding spot, except for the fact that you can actually see through the cover.

This kid still has a lot of things to learn about the game. He’s clearly clueless about how it works.

When you’re playing hide-and-seek, you’re supposed to hide your entire body. This kid needs more hours of practice since she missed the legs.

This kid wasn’t found because of the way she’s hiding. She was found because she was giggling so hard.

I hope that the laundry basket was empty before this kid jumped into it. Otherwise, he might not be able to stay there for a long time because of the smell.

Honestly, I think it’s a good hiding spot. You won’t be able to see the kid without moving the couch.

When you run out of ideas, you just put a Lego box on your head. It may not make the game challenging, but you’ll surely find it entertaining.

It must have been challenging for that kid to get inside that bag. Considering that his parents took a minute to find him, I’d say the hard work was worth it.

This kid was found in the middle of the room completely immobile. I guess that’s what hide-and-seek means to her.

I don’t think this kid has the right game in mind. She looks like she’s playing peek-a-boo instead of hide-and-seek.

His parents’ hearts are all set. Seeing how their kid hides, they’re sure that he won’t be winning any hide-and-seek games soon. Well, the lower the expectations, the better, right?

This kid had the right idea. He just needed some help with the execution.

I think this kid might have a chance at wining since he’s playing with another kid. If he stay still, he might come out as the champion.

It was a good thing that kids are flexible. If adults were to do this, they might end up with severe back and shoulder pain.

I’d probably hide my face as well if my friends find me hiding this way. It’s embarrassing.

This is what happens when you don’t move fast during a game. You’ll get caught even before you get to hide.

He was found even before he got time to close the cabinet’s door. The funny part? He actually looked surprised.

I guess your costume plays a critical role in your success in the game. An example: wearing a tutu won’t make you look less noticeable.

I think this kid was using reverse psychology. Instead of hiding in a discreet area, he actually chose to hide under this table where someone was clearly doing some work.

The type of curtain you have at home doesn’t matter. If it doesn’t completely cover the body, it won’t be effective. So, it’s either you teach your kids how to find good hiding spots or you invest in long curtains.

No matter how hard this kid try, she won’t win. That fabric is too thin for her.

This kid is trying to hide himself by pretending to be a tree. Lesson? If you can’t find a good hiding spot, you turn yourself into one.

When you’re looking for the best hiding spot, you have to consider your size. You need to make sure you can actually fit. Otherwise, you’ll end up looking like this.

This kid didn’t just find the perfect spot. He was able to utilize the elements in his environment, too. The shadow helped a lot.

He could have chosen the trash bins behind him. However, for some reason, the kid chose to hide behind the tree.

It’s hard not to notice this little girl. That red dress was all she needed to be found.

The flexibility of a child’s body is amusing. In some cases, it’s baffling, too.

At first glance, you might think that this kid is looking for something. In reality, he’s just trying his best to fit there and hide.

This just proves that you don’t always have to completely hide yourself to win the game. Sometimes, all you need to do is trick the eyes.

To win a game, you have to be careful about every detail. One tiny mistake can make you lose. In this case, it’s the little girl’s tiny foot.

She found a good spot. The only problem was that she was too big for it.

She thought she found the best spot to hide. She was quite surprised when her parent managed to find her.

Each time their dad’s car pull over to their garage, these kids hide. His last job for the day is to find them.

Don’t laugh at the kid. After all, tables are not usually made with glass.

Some kids aren’t aware of how cabinets work. If they try to hide inside one, this is what happens.

I’m pretty sure you had a hard time finding the kid, too. It took me a couple of seconds to locate him in this photo.

Shoes aren’t supposed to be stored in cabinets for clothes. It was a clear hint.

Under the table is one of the most common hiding spots for kids. Unfortunately, it doesn’t work all the time.

Children are gifts. Considering that, I think this kid could get away with this.

Learning how to play the piano isn’t that easy. It’s probably the reason why this kid is hiding behind one.

The key to winning the game is to blend as much as possible with the environment. If those socks were white, they could have been easier to hide.
