Children's Panadol spotlights real-life hero parents

From Australia: 'The things we do for kids' for Children's Panadol (GSK) by The Works

Children's Panadol spotlights real-life hero parents

The entertaining video features real-life scenes of parents going to great lengths to entertain their kids—or tolerate the antics of their wee ones. The clips were culled from actual YouTube videos.

Ad Nut believes the star of the show is the anthemic backing song, 'Tell me why'. It sounds like something the couples in the target audience might have heard on their first date. But if you can't quite place it, don't worry: it was actually commissioned for the ad.
