What is the silliest or stupidest thing you have done to get a laugh from your kid or baby? We have done some pretty silly things. We will chase the dog around the house while holding the baby. He (the baby) thinks it is the funniest thing ever. We will also dance and sing all crazy and he likes that too. What will you do to get a laugh?

My daughter gets a kick out of my singing! It's real bad so I kind of make it worse. My older kids get annoyed but my 2 yr old laughs like crazy.

I personally think baby talk is the silliest thing anyone can do to get a smile from a baby. Have you ever listened to someone talk to a baby in that 'baby talk" language.It is so funny! I must admit that I did baby talk to my oldest child but now I see how silly it is and wonder how she ever learned to talk plain. LOL

yeah. That is a good point. I thought I wouldn't do baby talk, but my son likes it and it makes him laugh.

I used to dance the "Tea for Two" shuffle and my kids thought it was hilarious when they were little and stupid when they got a little older. Oh Well!

I have stood on my head for my child I guess that was it. It is funny what we do for our children and they dont even realize how much we truly love them. Parenting requires that I think. That is why we learn sacrifice in relationships.

I have done some pretty silly things. I've chased my kids around table, chairs and other furniture. I've dumped water over my husband head. I have even dumped water on the kids. The ever famous hiding and then chasing them when they find you is always good for a laugh. With my kids when they were babies I would sniff their feet or their necks they always got a kick out of that.

To help with my daughter's potty training, I made up a song... Pee pee on the potty and poopy too! I go number one, and I go number two. When I'm all done I wipe through and through. Pee pee on the potty and poopy too! (Copy right pending) LOL
