A video of the moment was shared on the radio show’s Instagram Stories, where Hoda, 58, commented on all the children in the studio for National Bring Your Child to Work Day.

“Did you see all these cutie pie kids everywhere?” Holly asked the host.

However, Hoda appeared to have mixed feelings about allowing the little ones to help the crew run the show.

“First of all, we’ve got a child outside who’s carrying cable with the cameraman. We’ve got Lee’s kids came in, Pete Breen brought his son over the control room….apparently Pete Breen’s son is going to be talking in our ear,” she detailed before revealing her fears.

“I’m a little concerned about it. Look, if the show goes south, we’re blaming the kids.” Hoda confessed.

The TV star wasn’t entirely against the youngsters’ presence in the studio as she revealed the “date” she had with her eldest daughter, Haley, at 30 Rock the day before.

“I actually brought Haley here yesterday for her date, and I said, ‘What do you want to do?’ She said, ‘I want to come to 30 Rock,’ which we did.

“I said, ‘Where do you want to eat?’ She said, ‘I want to picnic in your office.’ We went downstairs to Potbelly, we got grilled cheeses, got ice cream from Ben and Jerry’s, [and] sat on the floor. Like [the] best date ever,” Hoda gushed.

In addition to six-year-old Haley, Hoda is also a mom to a four-year-old daughter, Hope.

Photos also showed other members of the Today Show family with their kids on set.

Carson Daly, 49, brought his 10-year-old daughter, Etta, and Sheinelle Jones, 45, and had her three kids, Kayin, 13, and twins, Uche, and Clara, 10, join the fun as well.

Craig Melvin, 43, also took his eight-year-old son, Delano, to work for the day as they posed for photos outside the studio.

The Today Show shared the pics on their official Instagram page, captioning it with Delano’s words about his dad.

It read: “‘Like my dad likes to say, it’s Fri-yay eve,’ Craig’s son, Delano, said during the third-hour intro. From anchors to camera operators, the kids took over Studio 1A and absolutely crushed it!”

SCARY INCIDENT

Last month, the hosts rallied around Hoda as she faced a scary medical emergency with her youngest child, Hope, resulting in the tot being rushed to the hospital.

Hoda gave an update on her daughter’s condition earlier this week, revealing she’s “getting better.”

As a guest on Southern Living’s Biscuits & Jam podcast, Hoda detailed the “tough” experience of watching her little girl go through such a “difficult time.”

She said Hope had a “health scare but is getting better.”

Hoda took a couple of weeks off from the Today show during the ordeal, though she didn’t immediately explain why she was absent.

But when she returned, she revealed that it was due to her daughter Hope being in the hospital.

The Today host told viewers: “My youngest daughter Hope was in the ICU for a few days and in the hospital for a little more than a week, and I’m so grateful she’s home.”

“She is back home, and I’ve been waiting for that day to come, and we are watching her closely.”

“I realize when your child is ill, the amount of gratitude you can have for people for who helped you out,” Hoda continued.

“I’m grateful for the doctors at Weill Cornell who are amazing and the nurses, and I’m grateful to my family and friends like you who were there every single day.”

‘HELPLESS’

Hoda opened up a bit more about the ordeal in the new podcast interview.

She admitted she felt “helpless” but realized “just how incredibly resilient and strong” her daughter is.

The host added: “I think sometimes you learn life’s lessons from the most amazing places.”

Hoda went on to explain just how “strong” her daughter is by sharing a sweet story from that challenging period.

“Hope said, ‘You know, I think God put me here to teach people things,’” the host said.

“I said, ‘What? What? What?’ She said, ‘Yeah, because my brain’s pretty big, so I think I’m supposed to teach people things.’”

The mother-of-two, who also has six-year-old Haley, added: “It’s like, [we] learn from our kids. And all we have to do is model.

“We don’t have to teach anything. Just be you … and then learn from them.”
