@ALL.
Not sure why most of the people say it is "does".
I suppose it should be "did".
The small child does whatever his father "DID".
Because the action of the kid is after the completion of father's action or while processing it.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

We are talking about the child in simple present tense, so the tense for father should also be simple present tense.

This sentence belongs to simple present tense so does is replaced with was done.

Sort of parallelism, I think.
Since the first verb is "does", it's present tense, then the next should be also in present tense since both verbs are still in the same clause.

Here, the context is the habit of the child. Habitual action is expressed by simple present.
