Chris Pratt's Cutest Moments with the 'Greatest Star' in His Galaxy, Son Jack

"The best part of parenthood is experiencing old things as new," Pratt said <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BEmmDwEDHMB/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:in a reflective post;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">in a reflective post</a>. "Currently off to see the wizard, the wonderful #WizardOfOz"

Pratt — who owns a farm and enjoys spending time outdoors — has instilled a love of nature in his son. Here, the two admire a tree that was planted in 1837; though "Mother Nature struck her down," the actor wrote, the pair still appreciated the beauty. "I live for moments like these," <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BlMp-XdlPoH/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Pratt wrote;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Pratt wrote</a>.

The movie star dad and his son take time to enjoy the simple things in life, too, like this blooming tree Pratt <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BjnW3fGFgrN/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:shared on Instagram;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">shared on Instagram</a>.

Jack's ability to see through his dad's work can be amusing. As the <em>Jurassic World</em> actor <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BjNHAIiF1xl/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:wrote alongside this pic;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">wrote alongside this pic</a>, "Gotta love it. Jack (seen here in blue Optimus Prime helmet) went to Universal Studios with his buddy the other day. He comes home and tells me he met the “real” raptor trainer. 😂 Big shout out to all the park performers out there keepin’ it real on a daily basis. Our kids’ smiles say it all. Keep up the good work."

Ain’t that cool? I’m your buckaroo. I wanna be like you and eat all my food and grow up tall as you are."

Actor by day, pancake artist by ... day as well. Pratt made his son a Donald Duck pancake, but <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/BH2TF-EjJrI/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:was disappointed;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">was disappointed</a> when Jack didn't quite approve of his artistry.

In a 2016 shot, Pratt took his son crabbing — and let him sit all the way up front on their boat.

Even superheroes can take breaks to build sandcastles on the beach with their boys.

Perks of having Pratt for a dad? Getting a front-row seat at the Monster Jam Celebrity Event at Angel Stadium in Anaheim, California, in 2018.

Jack was every bit the wide-eyed fan at the event.

(Barracuda sashimi is amazing by the way) haha!!”

Because Jack is so cute, his dad just had to snap a pic of him during nap time.

Jack completely stole the show at Pratt's Hollywood Walk of Fame ceremony in April 2017. In his speech, the <em>Guardians of the Galaxy</em> actor called his son "the greatest star in the galaxy, my little boy."

"1018am. This is happening. First tie-tying tutorial," ex Anna <a href="http://people.com/babies/chris-pratt-son-first-tie-tying-tutorial-walk-of-fame/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank" data-ylk="slk:Faris captioned this adorable snap;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas" class="link ">Faris captioned this adorable snap</a> on Twitter as the family prepped for Pratt's Walk of Fame ceremony.

The actor welcomed his son with ex Anna Faris in 2012 — and has been a seriously doting dad ever since
