Video games consoles are popular Christmas gifts, but maybe not for your abuelita. South Florida singer Jon Aro decided to prank his grandma over the holidays by gifting her an Xbox One, but it was him who ended up surprised.

On December 29 on Twitter, he shared an image of his abuelita parked in front of the TV with blue headphones covering her ears. “I got my grandma an Xbox One as a joke on Christmas and now she’s been playing for three days straight, and I can’t get her to stop.”

He followed it up with an equally hilarious tweet about his abuelita skipping church to play “Minecraft.”
