Laughing Together

"Laughing together is really how you bond and get close!" -Lise Eliot, PhD, author

Research shows that laughter brings great benefits to all people—it benefits both you and your child!

  • Laughter relaxes the whole body
  • Laughter boosts the immune system
  • Laughter triggers the release of endorphins (this is the body's 'feel-good' chemicals). 

Children laugh at things that are funny. They laugh when we make silly faces and say silly words. They understand what is going on more than we realize.
