When English dad Adam Hargreaves and his wife were having a hard time getting their three-year-old daughter Bobbie to bed, Hargreaves decided to do something about it.
The artistic dad decided to make his daughter’s room more appealing by transforming it into a magical Disney wonderland, with familiar characters like Peter Pan, Simba, Lilo and Stitch, Lady and the Tramp, Aladdin, and so forth.

The dad also uploaded a video with his daughter’s reaction on YouTube. “She was speechless—she didn’t know where to look or what to do,” Hargreaves told The Daily Mail. “She said, ‘Thank you Daddy for my beautiful bedroom.’”
Hargreaves hopes that the attention he’s gotten from his viral video will allow him to leave his day job at a supermarket to focus on his wall mural business Bespoke Art.
