For kids, having someone—a sibling or a cousin—to play with is always fun. This is also a great way to form a bond between siblings or cousins. In fact, research shows that people who are emotionally close to their siblings (or cousins, perhaps) have higher life satisfaction and lower rates of depression later in life.
Meantime, here are some of the cute and adorable kids who never fail to send out good vibes whenever their celebrity parents post about them on social media.
Arellano siblings

They are especially adorable while interacting with one another, whether for usual playing or unintentional kulitan.

Bacarro brothers

The brothers get excited when they hear music. They sing or hum along with the song and, in the case of little drummer Vito, simulate playing.
Vito can also be quite endearing with how he supports Pancho, who has special needs. He helps assist and gives encouragement to his kuya during therapy sessions and other activities. (Read here Saab's secret for the brothers' harmonious relationship.)

They surely made chicken nuggets completely exciting to eat, for instance.
The sisters also show great interest and talent in music, as they create and perform their own songs.
Amelia, nicknamed Mela, and Stela also know how to model and have actually been tapped by an international garment chain. They love to dance, too. But they also prove to be just as discipline (read here how they are taught by their mommy Melai).
Heussaff cousins
Thylane Katana Heussaff Bolzico's mother Solenn Heussaff and Dahlia Amelie Curtis-Smith Heussaff's father Erwan Heussaff are siblings. That makes the two girls, who were born barely two months apart (in January and March 2020, respectively) first cousins.

They also inspired their moms Solenn and Anne Curtis, respectively, to put up the kids' apparel brand Tili Dahli with the cousins as the main models.
Tili and Dahlia sure love to hang out together, just like in their grandparents' house.
Tili and Dahila also love to travel with the whole family. They went to Boracay when they were still babies and already besties (read here), and from there, to other Asian countries and several nations in Europe.
