I've set myself a new challenge - to have both my kids laugh in the morning before I leave them at school. I have always thought it important to help them feel good in the mornings, and I hated the few times during the years I had to leave them at school crying or unhappy.
But now I want to take it further to feeling good and laughing. And I am happy to say I have been mostly successful. And it works through to the rest of the day too. I have to find things for us to laugh at during the day, so that we can recall it the next morning and laugh again. Laughing with my kids makes me happy, I will never take it for granted.
What an excellent idea! We don't go to school but going to do this in the mornings.
