So you thought you knew all the tricks to get the baby to sleep quickly. You knew the lullaby and the hours rocking the baby. Well, here is a simpler trick!

Here is an Aussie father, Nathan Dailo, who has a quick trick fix to get his baby to sleep in less than a minute. All it needs is a tissue paper, according to the hindustantimes.

The Sidney father uploaded it on Youtube to show how it worked on his three-month-old son. The video got more than 23,000 views in just over two weeks.

"I'm sure every parent tries new things to put their little one to sleep. Watch as my wife and I put our 3-month old baby boy, Seth, to sleep in under a minute using nothing but a piece of tissue paper. What's the weirdest method you've used to put your little one to sleep?" Dailo wrote in his introduction to the video, according to dailymail.

The video shows Dailo, stroking his baby's face with a tissue paper. By the time he had come to the sixth brush, the baby was falling asleep. In another two strokes, the eyelids began to droop and by the tenth he could not keep his eyes open.

All it took was 42 seconds.

The post received an overwhelming response from viewers.

"This worked for my baby 5 times already so thanks!" one viewer wrote.

Dailo replied: "You can try just about anything though. We have found running your fingers over their forehead or over the bridge of their nose lightly will give the same effect too. We just thought a tissue would have a funny side to it! Its worked with a few others!"

Another viewer had something funnier to say: "I can confirm and safely say this did not work on my one year old.... in fact she's still very much wide awake at 11 pm. She is not only wide awake but also tore the tissue I was trying to use... all I want to do is go to sleep...."
