FOL Fridays: Go Ahead and Laugh

Laugh… for your health!  Laughter helps strengthen the immune system, lower blood pressure, and reduce stress levels.  In addition, humor helps young children handle problems or crisis situations, enhances social skills, and helps them create social bonds and healthy emotional attachments – so laugh away!

Tips for parents:  Take a few minutes for some funny faces, silly songs, knock-knock jokes, or just acting silly.  Laughing together not only has significant health benefits, it can also diffuse a tense situation and create some special bonds.  Who knew a little giggle could go such a long way?!
