A 4-year-old accidentally ordered $2,618 worth of SpongeBob popsicles from Amazon and has never looked happier.

A really cute 4-year-old named Noah accomplished what most kids could only dream of… he purchased 51 cases of Spongebob Squarepants popsicles and had them sent to his auntie's house. Unfortunately, 51 cases of said popsicles = $2,618 ... charged directly to his mom's bank account.

Noah's mom, Jennifer Bryant, is a student at NYU and a mother of 3 boys. She reached out to Amazon about returning the order for a refund, but they would not take it back.

I'm sure they simply could not afford the loss.

As a result, her friend created a GoFundMe to help pay off the popsicle debt, as she is unable to afford the purchase on top of student loans and other family expenses. So far, the GoFundMe account has already reached $7k and counting. Ms. Bryant said that she plans on using the remaining funds towards Noah's education and support for his ASD (Autism Spectrum Disorder).

I assume we can all agree here that the Spongebob popsicles are indeed the #1 pick when the ice-cream man rolls around. How can you blame Noah for ordering 918 of the greatest popsicles in existence?

Personally, I've also made some monetary mistakes as a child. One that was particularly bad was when I went on a cruise and racked up a $1k bill in the arcade. Turns out, the "key to the world" card was linked to my parent's credit card and didn't just turn on all the machines for free. Who would have thought?!?!

It was not, in fact, a "key to the world" card, it turned out to be a "key to being grounded for a very long time" card. #yolo
