Hot weather and hose water: Perfect combination for baby panda

The National Zoo’s youngest panda got a special treat and you can tell he loved it!

Zookeepers with a hose were cleaning his area on Wednesday and the zoo posted video of him playing in the water.

Friends are looking forward to Bei Bei’s first birthday, coming up on Aug. 2. There’s a celebration for several pandas’ birthdays scheduled for Aug. 20.
