30-Year gap no big deal for sisters Cristalle Belo and "bunso" Scarlet Snow

Siblings with big age gaps don't have a lot in common, and bunso ends up with no one to play with at home! But not so with Cristalle Belo and Scarlet Snow. See their adorable bonding moments, here.

Do you have kids with huge age gaps? Worried that your youngest child won’t have anyone to play with in a house full of grownups?

Well, fear not! There are lots of ways for your children to bond, regardless of their age difference.

Take, for instance, 33 year-old Cristalle Belo and her 16 month-old sister Scarlet Snow who, despite their huge age gap, still manage to enjoy each other’s company.

In fact, baby Scarlet just loves it when her ate Cristalle spends time with her. Not only have they bonded over their common interests in art and a love for animals; they also have loads of fun playing hide-and-seek, singing songs, and indulging in sweets!

Here are five ways Cristalle spends time with Scarlet as they create unforgettable bonding moments:

Favorite playmate

Cristalle is one of Scarlet’s favorite playmates. Cristalle makes Scarlet so gleeful that her laughter just filles their home with happiness.

“Our home is a very happy place. Everyone is loving and caring and fun. My Ate @cristallebelo is one of my favorite playmates because she always has time for me…” reads a description of a video of Cristalle and Scarlet playing peek-a-boo. The video was shared on Scarlet’s Instagram account.

Our home is a very happy place. Everyone is loving and caring and fun. My Ate @cristallebelo is one of my favorite playmates because she always has time for me even she’s already very busy working and preparing for her wedding where I will be her flower girl. I think I’ll play hide and seek with her that day ????

Scarlet and Cristalle also love goofing up in front of the camera.

Hihihi my ate @cristallebelo and I do really look like each other, don’t we? Good night, peopow! I hope you had lots of smiles and laughters today. #TeamSnowyBear

Ate Cristalle is also a trooper when it comes to doing the heavy lifting. And by heavy lifting, we mean carrying baby Scarlet high up in the air so that she can fly!

Thank you, Ate Cristalle, for helping me fly!???? @storkstudio

Shared passions between the adorable two, on the next page.

Common interests

Scarlet seems to share her ate Cristalle’s love for art, a fact which Cristalle is quick to take advantage of.

“The girl knows how to appreciate art,” Cristalle captioned this sweet photo, which she shared on Instagram.

This girl knows how to appreciate art! #7107 #NotYourAverageLocal #teamsnowybear @scarletsnowbelo @belobabylove

Aside from their interest in art, Cristalle and Scarlet also love animals.

“I love animals and I’m so happy it seems like Scarlet is liking them too. I love how she’s not afraid,” Cristalle said about her baby sister.

Tap #AmityCutie @scarletsnowbelo ???? I love animals and I’m so happy it seems like Scarlet is liking them too. I love how she’s not afraid. It takes proper introduction, guided playtime and interaction with pets and them just seeing the pets around the house so they get used to it! That’s your @belobabylove tip for the day! #TeamSnowyBear #Frenchie #FrenchBulldog

Sharing food

Ate Cristalle also makes sure she shares her food with Scarlet. Here’s a video of Cristalle giving Scarlet lots of chocolates!

Dear team @rockymountainph, thank you so much for making me so happy by sending me my favorite chocolate-covered marshmallows with different flavors! It’s so nice to be able to share something with my whole family.????????????

Taking advantage of teachable moments

Ate Cristalle loves to teach Scarlet new things, such as the lyrics and actions of the song I’m a Little Teapot.

@cristallebelo is trying to teach @scarletsnowbelo how to do the actions of “I’m a little teapot” . Snowy bear can’t do it yet but she’s still cute . #teamsnowybear @belobabylove

Spending time with each other no matter what

Big sis Cristalle makes sure she always spends time with little sis Scarlet. Whether she is busy with work or preparing for her upcoming wedding, Cristalle manages to squeeze in time for her baby sister.

Here’s an adorable video of Scarlet accompanying Cristalle to a fitting appointment:
