One mum has shared a hilarious video of her son having a conversation with virtual assistant Alexa when he woke up in the middle of the night.

Posting the clip on TikTok, it's amused and delighted over three million viewers after the cute moment was caught on camera.

The mum told the social media site she uses Alexa to play lullabies to her son as he falls asleep - but on this particular night it wasn't working.

The boy woke up and said: "Alexa, I need daddy."

To which Alexa answered: "What should I add?"

The boy repeated 'daddy' - and Alexa replied: "I've added daddy to your shopping list, is there anything else?"

The youngster then replied, confused: "Er... no."

Viewers commented: "This is so cute!"

Another added: "Hope daddy was delivered ASAP!"

Others wrote: "I just want to see what exactly it added to the shopping cart," while other users asked: "Wait, do you think Alexa will add a man to my shopping cart too?" and: "Can Alexa send me a husband too?!"
