Making your baby laugh is really quite simple. As a matter of fact, the younger your baby is, the easier it is to make them laugh. So, here are a few quick and easy ways to make your little one giggle with glee: 

1. Play peekaboo

2. Make funny faces 

There is a reason why you find mature, seemingly normal adults making peculiar faces when interacting with a baby. It’s because babies find it hilarious. Of course, you should avoid making scary faces or it might just cause the opposite reaction.
