The laughter of children is probably the best sound in the world. To hear the ring of laughter of children in a playground, or the belly laugh of a baby, always makes me smile. It’s one of those sounds that can instantly put you in a good mood. That and a favourite song are the two things that make me feel better instantly. I love playing with my grandson and I seem to have a knack (a hidden talent?) to get him to belly laugh. It can be something as silly as me trying to juggle or pretending to sneeze – he seems to get a kick out of me overacting!

Listen today for the sounds of children laughing and see if it makes you just smile a little – I bet it will!
