HowMuchILaugh!

“How much I laugh when my mother pushes me on the swing, and I fly high in the sky…” This book presents different experiences a child has with his friends and family that makes him laugh.

Age Group: The kindergarten

Dear Parents,

We all like to laugh, whether we are adults or children! Laughing relieves stress, gives us positive energy and improves our relationships with others. A one-year-old baby laughs when we tickle him, when he hears familiar noises or at funny facial expressions.

When children are age 4 or 5, we, parents, are the main source for our child’s happiness. The games we play with him/her, the family time we spend make our child happy and joyful. Children, in general, laugh a lot at this age when something “breaks a rule” – changes the order of things; we see them enjoy to switch letters in a word, or trying to create sentences with rhymes with no meanings, or when we use something familiar in an unfamiliar way (like using a pot as a hat). This may express itself also in children’s play, say by drawing eyes on a house, or drawing a car without tires!

This book invites you, parents, to discover what makes your child laugh, and to enjoy precious moments with him/her.
