Boy, 5, Hilariously Struggles To Fit Into His School Uniform As He Gains Weight During Lockdown

While the pandemic still remains a global concern. Some Countries are slowly beginning to lift the social restrictions with schools and institutions resuming normal operations.

Video footage of a five-year-old Chinese boy has gone viral on social media. The clip shows the boy having a hard time fitting into his school uniform. The lad had put on weight while spending four months at home due to the lockdown.

In an effort to squeeze into his shirt, the pre-schooler can be seen in the viral video sucking in his belly as his grandmother tried to button up the child’s shirt. The boy then smiled in relief after he finally put on the school outfit.
