Rupert Grint was Dad of the Year because he built his toddler’s Target store.
During an appearance on “The Tonight Show” this week, Rupert Grint I shared a few tips about parenting toddlers that really set the standard for dads to get along. What is the answer, you may ask? His two-year-old daughter, Target’s Target Play Store, was built by him.
Everyone’s favorite Harry Potter Weasley was a guest on Monday’s episode of The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, where he shared that his toddler daughter Wednesday’s latest “obsession” is with Target.

Host Jimmy Fallon asked him what his toddler is into lately, and Grint replied, “So many things. She’s kind of princess crazy, as well. She’s struggling a little bit with adjusting to U.K. life. She spent most of her time in America so she’s missing some cultural things.”
Since he’s been filming his show, “Servant,” in Philadelphia for most of Wednesday’s life, she’s become accustomed to all things America. Target is her favorite. She can’t blame Target. We are all.
“She does love Philly. She loves hoagies. Target is the biggest. She is obsessed with Target,” he explained. “She’d choose that over going to the park, or zoo. But she loves going to different Targets and seeing how the layout is kind of slightly different.”
Omg. Is she…one of us? Only two years old. It’s amazing to see. And it’s clear Jimmy Fallon was loving every bit of this story, as he couldn’t stop laughing.
“Sometimes she doesn’t buy anything, she just wants to kind of browse,” Grint continued. “The toy aisle is definitely a draw, but she’s more into lip balm, to be fair.”

I rarely shop at Target, but my daughter is 100% right when it comes down to the fun of just browsing the aisles. You never know what you’ll find—or, more accurately, convince yourself what you need.
So what did Rupert Grint do to ease his daughter’s transition to the Target-less UK? He shared a photo of his entire setup and built a mini-Target store. It’s everything.
“I think I’ve definitely captured the essence,” Grint said. “It was one of the most difficult conversations, telling her she lives in a country that doesn’t have Target. I’ve shown her our kind of equivalent, but it doesn’t hold up.”
