     Out of the Mouths of Babes
Oodles of evidence exists demonstrating that laughter
is a powerful medicine. A good laugh stimulates the
heart and lungs, releases feel-good endorphins from
the brain, decreases stress, strengthens the immune
system, lifts the mood, and just plain makes us happier   2nd– Carolyn McDonald
people overall. The only problem is that many adults
don’t laugh enough. Scientists have run the numbers,       17th– Helen Matava
and most adults, on average, laugh 20 times per day.
This may seem like a lot, but children laugh up to
300 times a day! Humor Month, which begins with           25th– Charlie Costello
the foolishness of April Fools’ Day, seems the perfect
time to get to the root cause of this laughter deficit.     26th– Fern Brook

                                                            27th– Gloria Krapf
Psychologist and laughter expert Robert Provine began
collecting laughter samples in the 1980s. He wanted to
understand why people laughed. Interestingly, laughter
did not occur most often when people heard a funny         29th– Stephen Matava
joke. Instead, people laughed most at everyday remarks
made by friends. Laughter, Provine discovered, was an        30th- Arthur Graff
incredibly important type of social glue and a healthy
way to engage the world. And this may be why kids
laugh so much more than adults.

Children are filled with the sense of wonder that
comes with constantly learning new things. Not only
is laughter a normal response to a delightful and
unexpected outcome but a sense of humor is critical
to developing self-esteem, practicing social skills,
and learning to solve problems. Kids who laugh
at themselves demonstrate the ability to accept
their
own imperfections. This lightheartedness attracts
other friends, which in turn makes them feel
better about themselves, resulting in higher self-
esteem.
The funny thing is that all of these social benefits
continue into adulthood. As we grow, we should
never stop delighting in the unexpected and
laughing
at ourselves, for these traits will keep our friends
close and keep the laughs coming—and the more
we laugh, the happier and healthier we will be.
