Make Me Laugh

- - - | written by on | - - -

So it’s been said that the average kid laughs around 400 times a day. When it comes to laughing, the average kid kicks the butt of the average grown-up, who laughs about 15 times a day. I think this video serves as ample proof. Sure, the source of humor is not exactly Robin Williams doing improv, but the kid sure looks like he’s having fun.

And another note: A laugh is a laugh is a laugh. When Kim was teaching kindergarten, she’d come home every day thinking she was Jerry Seinfeld. Kindergartners are a very easy crowd. But if you can up your own laugh quota by getting a kid to laugh at something YOU don’t think is particularly funny (like someone “Bloop” over and over again)…more power to you. It’s still better than the scowl most grown-ups wear.
