The snow and low temperatures in the US are creating a lot of inconvenience in daily life, but a certain panda cub at the Smithsonian National Zoo is having fun. 

16-month-old "Baobao (宝宝)" is a Washington super star.  The Smithsonian Zoo uploaded a video of Baobao rolling over in the snow, and playing with mother "Meixiang(美香)". 

The video has been picked up by social networks and media. The clicks at one website have topped a million.  Time Magazine comments that the scene of Baobao rolling down a snowy slope will certainly melt your heart.

The cub made his public debut last April. When he was one year old, the zoo held a birthday party to celebrate. Baobao is the second giant panda born in the zoo to live to beyond his first year. He's a fan favorite around the United States.
