😂🚨 "CPR" Class Gone Wild! 🚨😂

This is a pretend Baby CPR class, and let's just say the results are... not medically accurate. 🤪

With two couples huddled around the manikin, it has quickly devolved into a competition for the most ineffective, laugh-out-loud compressions! Watching their hands fly and hear the giggles, you'd think the goal was to perform a chaotic puppet show, not save a life! 👶🤣

⚠️ The Serious (But Funny) Takeaway:
While this skit is hilarious, it's actually a great visual of NOT how to perform Baby CPR! It requires calm, proper technique, not group chaos.

👉 If you want to know the real way, not the comedy skit way, please ask about our baby first aid sessions! It's the most important skill a parent can learn.
