According to a study conducted by American experts, a sense of humor is an important component of emotional intelligence. While about 30% of human humor is innate, the remaining 70% must be developed later in life. As a result, many parents have started to provide their babies with a unique “early humor training” even after 6 weeks of life, as advocated by child education experts. In reality, many of the more intelligent babies do develop a sense of humor by this time. A typical example is that when a parent deliberately holds a child in a “falling” position, some children, while experiencing the sensation of falling, will realize that the adult is playing with them and their faces may light up with a smile! For children with a strong sense of humor, parents in the U.S. often play “falling” with them, but also play hide-and-seek (e.g., cover their face with a handkerchief and then jerk it away, which may bring a smile to the child’s face), or knocking (e.g., hit a dish with a spoon to make it sound crisp, then pretend to hit it with the spoon to make it sound like it is falling). Children around 1 week old are already very sensitive to the facial expressions of others. Most parents in the U.S. make a face at him to soothe him when he falls over as a toddler. The power of humor is boundless, and he will often be amused by the faces of adults to break into laughter. Not only that, but parents also encourage children to imitate making faces, and the weirder they are, the more they are appreciated. 2-week-olds can already find humor in the incongruity of bodies or objects. For example, when an adult puts a sock “on” his or her hand, the child’s face shows a look of distress. In the U.S., if a child learns to put gloves on his or her feet at this time, the parent not only does not reprimand the child, but laughs with him or her. 3-year-olds have developed the intelligence to recognize the humor hidden in conceptual incongruities. When the father deliberately carries the mother’s small women’s purse, or the mother deliberately wears the father’s large men’s watch, the child will shake his head and laugh at the same time. Parents in the United States often acquiesce to their children pretending to wear their grandfather’s bowler hat, holding a cane, hobbling, and enjoying the joy of humor through imitation. 4-year-olds especially like to “play house” or play cartoon characters. When Americans find their sons and the little girl next door are very involved in the role of the prince and princess, not only do not stop, they may also play a small role such as the bad guy, adding fuel to the atmosphere more lively, lively. When children grow up to 5-6 years old, they may be very sensitive to the humor in language. At this time, American parents will use homonyms and puns and learn tongue twisters to enhance their children’s sense of humor. 7-year-olds are mostly in school. They tend to enjoy telling and listening to jokes. Some jokes are not elegant enough, but adults generally do not roughly criticize or even reprimand. They believe that children at this time, especially those naughty boys, often through jokes or pranks to “balance” or “adjust” their minds. Although the humor may be unpleasant or even embarrassing to adults, but adults deserve to tolerate. The reason is simple: it is an integral part of a child’s developmental process! It is wise to let children know what is vulgar and what is humorous if adults can guide them properly at this time. Parents in the United States often listen to their children’s little jokes about school life, and laugh heartily to show their children’s sense of humor. In addition, adults often guide children in making up humorous stories, adapting the plots of movies and TV shows, or adding hilarious endings. When children enter the upper elementary grades, schools often organize competitions for writing or telling “humorous stories. Parents often give their children unreserved support for activities that enhance their sense of humor. Once a child’s humor is developed, it will have an important impact on his or her life. Children with a sense of humor are more likely to be cheerful and lively, more likely to be liked by teachers, and have better relationships than children without a sense of humor. Humor also helps children cope better with stress and pain in life and school, so children with a sense of humor tend to be happier and smarter, and can finish school more easily, and even have a happy, enjoyable life.
