Dwyane Wadeis putting his dancing shoes on for daughterKaavia James.
On Friday, the NBA legend, 41, shared a glimpse of him and his 4-year-old jamming out in what appeared to be their kitchen while listening toJack Black’s song “Peaches” fromThe Super Mario Bros. Movie.
In thefirst of two Instagram Story clips, Wade played the song on his phone as he danced from side to side while his daughter performed a sweet pirouette. The former basketball player also performed several emotive hand moves with Kaavia as they sang and danced along to the song together.
Getting into the spirit of the fun morning, Wade held up the phone towards the camera at various points in between dancing so the song could be heard more clearly, which caused the person filming to laugh behind the camera. Meanwhile, adventurous Kaavia even stood up between two sofas during the song as part of an elaborate dance move, as her father watched on with a smile.
“When dad is responsible for the morning routine before school,” Wade jokingly wrote over the the clip.

In afollow up video, Kaavia could be seen yelling out, “Dad, Peaches!,” to which he expanded his arm movements. She began to scream out the song title two more times, making Wade laugh before the video ended.
The adorable father-daughter morning came a few days after Wade, his wifeGabrielle Unionand Kaavia all stepped out to trick-or-treat for Halloween in colorful costumes. Union and Wade dressed up as a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. In between them, Kaavia posed in a light-up blue princess costume — similar to Cinderella — with her arms crossed.
“Our princess everyday of the year 💜,” the couple captioned their joint post.
