Baby has sledging mishap in backyard during his first snow experience in Canada

A Canadian baby's first experience of snow didn't go according to plan after a sledging setback.

The funny clip, filmed in Simcoe County, Canada, shows eight-month-old Colson being pushed down a snowy mound by his dad Mike, before suffering a mishap that sees him faceplant into the snow.

"We went tobogganing in the backyard, but the sledge stuck to the snow and Colson slid off and went face-first into the snow!" Mike explained.

Colson was none the worse for his experience and played in the snow afterwards.

See what happens in the video above.
