Laughter is known to be the best medicine for just about everything, and for
Good reason. Aside from
protecting against heart disease, laughter actually works to foster brain connectivity and cultivates relationships with others. So it's no wonder that parents eagerly await
the big milestone of watching their little one
let out a genuine laugh for the
First time.
All children are different and reach milestones at various paces, but a
baby typically starts giggling and laughing in response to tickles, silly faces, or even bouncy movements by the time they're 4 months old.
Don't worry if
Your baby doesn't start guffawing away at such an early age, though, as it isn't unusual for some to
Wait until they're almost a year old before they
Have a true belly laugh. Plus, sometimes it takes parents a while to figure out how to get their little one to
Laugh out loud (remember when
Ross sang Sir Mix a Lot's "Baby Got Back" to make Emma laugh on
Friends?). Just remember: be patient and enjoy the moment when
Your baby does starts laughing, because before you know it, they'll be rolling their eyes at
Your bad jokes.
