The coronavirus quarantine has definitely brought out the creative best in people. Dining tables are being turned into pool tables, parody songs are being recorded and drones are being used for unconventional purposes like walking a dog, delivering toilet paper to a friend and even giving someone a phone number.
Having said that, the abundance of free time has also given birth some bizarre stuff like the #PoopChallenge, reports Hindustan Times.
According to New York Post, it essentially involves parents asking their kids to bring them toilet paper and then smearing them with fake poop (Nutella, molten chocolate, peanut butter or any other food item) to see how they react.

Needless to say, most children are getting grossed out by this prank and expressing their anger through words and tears. However, a few are taking it pretty well and accepting their parents’ apology without getting mad. Of course, there are also those who are quickly realizing that the fake poop is actually edible and licking it right off!
Here are some of the videos of the challenge on Twitter:

For those of us who think this is weird (or a waste of time) and would like to do constructive lockdown activities with children, this mom’s home-schooling plan that teaches household chores as subjects is a great idea.
