Joanna Gaines‘ 5-year-old son is keeping her on her toes!

The clip began with a view of Crew walking on top of three stools. After he set foot on top of a brown chair, he used the living room table to get to the sofa. A pillow bridge connected him to the other side of the table, which he walked on top of to arrive at the end of the course.

Apart from being the youngest, Crew also has a curious mind. During this year’s Fourth of July holiday, his mom shared a sweetInstagramphoto of himpreparing a batch of cake pops. The snap showed Crew dipping a cake pop into a bright red chocolate candy coating. She wrote in the caption, “Test Kitchen Camp with Crew.”

In August, Crew accompanied his mom toharvest 10 gallons of honeyfrom the bees on their Waco, Texas, property. AnInstagram videoshowed the little one inspecting the bees and helping his mom throughout the process.

During a conversation with PEOPLE in November, the mom of five opened up about the importance of protecting her children’s passions.

“Obviously at some point it’d be so fun to have one or two of our kids work with us, but that’s definitely not what we’re saying out loud to them. Chip is really good at saying, ‘You need your own identity. When you’re finished with college, go do some stuff on your own. Learn some stuff. And then if you want to come back years later and teach us, we’re here,'” she explained.

She told PEOPLE that having kids of different age ranges gives her and her husband, 49, “perspective.”

“The greatest gift of having a kid go off to college and having a 5-year-old is that perspective. It’s not here forever. We don’t want to waste these moments,” she said.
