Adults often laugh when they hear or see something funny but when kids laugh, it might mean many things as they might only be mimicking the adults or other kids as they naturally model their behavior on what they see and feel around them. Parents who often laugh when they read, hear or see something humorous are subconsciously living a model for their kids to develop a good sense of humor. Culturing a good sense of humor can help to develop the kids pre-reading skills, creativity and cognitive thinking. When kids are having fun and enjoying what they are learning helps them to retain more of what is being taught to them as the old saying goes ?Laughter is the best medicine? can be extended to ?Laughter can enhance memory skills and improves alertness and concentration?

Here are several funny for kids games which will tickle their funny bone:
1. Tongue twisters Tongue twisters rock kids with laughter and they also helps to develop language fluency, letter recognition, listening skills and fosters imagination. You can find many tongue twisters in the internet but here is one which you can try. She wishes to wish the wish you wish, but if you wish the wish the fish wishes, I won?t wish the wish she wishes to wish.
2. Poems and finger plays is one of the many classic funny for kids games I always love to do this with the children at my daycare center and it has never failed to light up their smiles. Try this classic poem. Miss Polly had a dolly Who was sick, sick ,sick (place your hand on your forehead and mimic a really sick expression) So she called for the doctor To come quick, quick, quick (use a toy phone and pretend to use it) This encourages creative movement and enhances listening and rhyming skills.
3. Short stories and dramatic play This is another funny for kids games which I played during my English program and the kids enjoyed themselves so much that they kept asking for more short stories to play and never tire themselves acting out the stories over and over again. Some of the short stories which I played with them are The Three Little Pigs, The Bear who lost his tail and the Farmer and his silly Donkey. One of the kids will read out the story while the others act it out and it is really hilarious and funny to see how each group tries to outdo each other and had my center bombed with laughter. This can also be a great party game. This game encourages creativity, imagination and reading skills.
4. Memory Train This game enhances the kids concentration, memory and listening skills and would also help them to understand the concept of sequencing. Another great funny for kids games. Today is Monday, Today is Monday, Monday pizza, To share with you, Come and take your piece, Today is Tuesday, Today is Tuesday, Tuesday wind chimes, Monday pizza, To share with you, Come and take your piece, Today is Wednesday, Today is Wednesday, Wednesday storytelling, Tuesday wind chimes, Monday pizza, To share with you, Come and take your piece, Continue the rhyme for the rest of the week and you can see the children roaring with laughter while trying to remember the sequence. This is not only funny for kids but helps them to understand the concept of time.
A sense of humor can be cultivated in children just as they learn values like love, respect and kindness. When children are enjoying themselves while learning helps them to learn more quickly and enrich their learning process.
