10 ways to make your kids laugh

How to make your kids laugh

Lighten up the month by hanging out with the family! Nothing is more precious than the sweet melodious sound of a child’s giggles. Here are 10 ways that will get you and your kids laughing together as a family!

YouTube it

Watch funny YouTube videos together. Oh look! A hilarious sneezing baby panda shocking its mum. Classic. Or listen to some popular songs and make up the lyrics as you sing along.

Pillow fight

Best with all ages. A good, family-friendly workout session too!

Sock off!

Have a mini competition to take off each other's socks. The first one to go barefoot loses. Beware of dad's stinky feet!

When I was a baby...

"When I was a baby" stories never fail to make kids laugh out loud, especially when your stories involve diaper or toilet training mishaps.

Would you rather?

Play "Would you rather?" with your kids. A great game that works with all ages and requires nothing else but pure silliness. Some of my favorites are: Would you rather have a penguin or a giraffe as a pet? Would you rather be hairy all over or completely bald? Would you rather be Sleeping beauty or Rapunzel?

Make funny noises

Make your kid laugh simply by making funny noises. Some might sound so grossly genuine that it won't fail to have the whole family keeling over from laughing so hard!

Water fight!

Engage in a family water fight. Make sure everyone feels safe (so no spraying directly in the face) and that it's a fair fight.

Funny faces

Partake the family in a stare off contest or make fishy faces at each other. First one to laugh loses!

Sing-a-long session

Gather the family for a fun singing session, but this time, try to go out of key!

Crack a joke

Share riddles and knock knock jokes with the family! One of our favourites - Why was the football stadium so hot after the game? Answer - because all the fans had left!
