These tired tots nod off in bizarre places – in the street, on the loo and on a HORSE
Oscar Smith was crowned Britain's sleepiest child after a nationwide search for hilarious sleeping photos
It's official: little Oscar Smith is Britain's sleepiest child.
After a nationwide search for the UK's sleepiest child, seven-year-old Oscar was crowned the winner after being caught on camera nodding off on a pal's pony.
He had been mucking out at a friend's stables when he decided to climb onto the back of white pony Dipsy for forty winks.
Mum Katie said she couldn’t believe it when she walked in on the scene.
“When I saw Oscar had dozed off on the back of the horse I couldn’t stop laughing - it was such a funny sight.
“I wasn’t that surprised really as he had worked really hard helping muck out the stables.”
