A baby girl and a kind, gentle horse have quite possibly the sweetest relationship, and a cute moment between the two is captured on camera.

To properly grow and develop physically, emotionally and psychologically, children require a ton of love, care and attention. Babies need to know and understand that their needs will be met. Children who do not have those needs met in a timely and satisfactory manner could grow up to experience a whole list of mental and physical problems.

In addition to the near-constant care that children require, attention must be delivered gently and lovingly. Children are very fragile creatures and must be handled with the right amount of love, care and gentleness. 

In a clip posted on YouTube, a horse even seems to understand that children must be handled very delicately and lovingly. The short video shows a baby wrapped tightly in a blanket as a horse approaches the child.

Of course, a horse approaching a child would give any decent parent pause and cause them to immediately panic. However, the horse shows the child nothing but love, tenderness and care. The animal places its face right on the child and does so several times throughout the clip. 

The animal’s gentleness with the baby is simply astounding. How does the animal understand how to approach and treat the child?

Another equally mind-blowing part of the clip is the young child’s reaction. The baby is not bothered by having the large creature place its face on it. Instead of reacting with fear or crying out for help, the child doesn’t even flinch. The baby lovingly gazes up at the animal, not bothered at all by the horse’s presence.

It's such a sweet and astounding moment between the horse and baby! 

Proverbs 22:6 “If a child is trained up in the right way, even when he is old he will not be turned away from it.”
