Share Jokes With Your Toddler Anytime
Toddlers love to giggle, and they love your undivided attention. This means there is really no bad time to engage in a silly joke session with your favorite three year-old. Jokes can be used to brighten a tot's mood, distract them from something unpleasant, strengthen your bond, or keep them engaged and entertained during rather boring and dull situations and events. Consider telling a few wisecracks when:
- You are in the car. Instead of cranking up the music or occupying them with a device, tell a few memorized jokes (or read them off of a sheet of paper or your phone if you are in the passenger seat).
- During wait time. Little kids hate waiting, and they are just beginning to learn the art of patience. Help them stay mentally occupied and engaged by telling jokes. Try telling a few fun jokes when you are in line at the grocery store, sitting at the dentist's office, or waiting to hop on an airplane.
- If you know your child is becoming anxious over something (perhaps they are about to receive a shot, have separation anxiety before preschool drop off, or are en route to a big performance), break up the anxiety and tension with a few cute jokes about some of your toddler's favorite topics, like food and animals.
- Toddlers and tantrums go together like peanut butter and jelly. Chances are, you will encounter your fair share of toddler tantrums as a parent. If you have a few jokes on tap to make your little one laugh, it may be possible to reset your tot and turn a tantrum into a giggle fest.
Laughing With Your Toddler Is an Excellent Way to Bond
Bonding with your tiny best friend is probably one of your top priorities in life, and sharing a giggle together is a great way to achieve a bit of bonding. Spend undivided time with your darling, telling a few funny jokes without any distractions. They might not remember the punchlines or the jokes, but they will definitely remember your love and attention. And when they're older, teach them some jokes they can tell their friends.
