The video was captured by the Spillman Family as they visited the Kansas City Zoo for the first time with their brand new baby. You can see the mom sitting down feeling the baby and the two chimpanzees trying to distract and get the attention of the young kiddo.

The Spillman family said this visit was their baby’s first time at the Zoo, and the incredible interaction will be a moment they will remember forever! It's so adorable to see one of the chimps making faces and waving its arms up and down banging on the glass to get the baby's attention.

I have never experienced an interaction with an animal at the zoo, but a few of my closest friends have and it's fun, amazing, and thrilling all in one feeling.
