Rise follows along, raising his arms until his mom instructs him to put them back down.

"What about clap, can you clap?" she asks, to which Rise starts hitting the ground before bringing his hands together to clap.

"On his way!! He started reading sight words already too!!!! Can't wait to show you all.🤍✨," Bell wrote.

In addition to Rise, Bell and Nick Cannon share daughter Powerful Queen, 2, and son Golden Sagon, 6, who started the second grade at 5 years old.

Earlier this year, the proud mom shared a video on Instagram of her and Golden in the car together, where she quizzed him on spelling words. He could easily spell the words "knowledge" and "silence," with the video cutting off as he started to spell "imitated."

The mom then shared a video that began by saying, "I just want to show you something. I've been busy in school, busy in the mom life, but I'm so proud of my son, he inspires me. Let me tell you why, look."

The video showed the results from a skill assessment taken by Golden, with Bell explaining, "Golden got tested for his abilities, and he's at grade level four. Although he's not even 6, he's in second grade. He's scoring in everything at a fourth-grade level."

"This is amazing. He blew me away. He inspires me."

In addition to his three kids with Bell, Cannon shares twins Moroccan and Monroe, 12, with ex-wife Mariah Carey.

He also shares twins Zion Mixolydian and Zillion Heir, who turn 2 next month, and daughter Beautiful Zeppelin, 6 months, with Abby De La Rosa; son Legendary Love, 11 months, with Bre Tiesi, and daughter Onyx Ice, 8 months, with LaNisha Cole.

Additionally, he's dad to two children with Alyssa Scott: son Zen — who died at 5 months old in December 2021 after being diagnosed with brain cancer — and daughter Halo Marie, 5 months.
