HOW TO GO ABOUT BRINGING LAUGHTER TO BABIES?
(Multiple sources are included in this file)
Bring a toy to life. One of the pleasures of playing with babies is taking advantage of their inability to distinguish real and imaginary objects. Grab his favorite teddy bear or puppet, and instill life into the toy with your silly animation.

ENVIRONMENT FOR PARENT-CHILD OBSERVATION:
For today, prepare an interesting environment using objects and
activities that the parents and children have enjoyed together during
past sessions. Some suggestions are: toys that have an element of
surprise such as a jack-in-the-box; mirrors to make funny faces;
puppet box with puppets; music area with audio tapes of a
variety of songs where parents and children can do silly dances and
books.
Give them toys. Leave your sibling with an adult and loads of toys all around. Let him/her play as much as they want. That has to make them happy, and thus, make them smile!

Become more coordinated. While infants do not generally develop much fine motor control at this age, they definitely perfect their ability to bring objects to their mouths, a skill that bothers some parents, but which actually serves a great purpose. It is entirely expected that babies will explore the world around them through their mouths! In addition, 3- to 6-month-olds are able to play with and be amused by toys put within their reach, and by 6 months, most can pass objects from hand to hand.
Enjoy making sounds. Not only do babies this age like to laugh and squeal with pleasure and excitement, but they perfect their ability to gurgle, coo, and blow raspberries. Some begin to make consonant sounds (n, d, p, b), most can link sounds with the objects that made them, and by the time they reach 6 months of age, often start to actually imitate sounds.

Why Bamboo?
I have recently had the question asked why bamboo and thought I would answer it.
Bamboo is softer than the softest cotton, Bamboo fabric has a natural sheen to the surface and feels similar to cashmere.The fabric absorbs water 3-4 times better than cotton, keeping skin comfortable, rather than sticky, in hot weather.
Bamboo apparel is thermal regulating, odor resistant, anti-static and will keep you cooler and drier in the heat of summer and warmer in cold temperatures.
Bamboo, a renewable resource, is grown without using pesticides or chemical fertilizers.
Bamboo is one of the world's most prolific and fastest-growing plants, and is able to reach maturity in about four years, compared to the typical 25 to 70 years for commercial tree species in the U.S. Though most people are generally familiar with this beautiful and graceful plant, the average person is usually astounded when learning that there are more than 1000 documented uses of bamboo.
Bamboo is nature's most sustainable resource and is naturally regenerative. Bamboo is actually a tropical grass, with an extensive root system that sends out an average of four to six new shoots per year, naturally replenishing itself and growing to heights of 60 feet or more.
In Asia, bamboo has been used in the traditional hand-made production of paper for centuries. Now, through modern manufacturing processes, bamboo pulp is capable of producing viscose from bamboo for use in yarn and fabric. Certain species of bamboo have the tensile strength equivalent to that of steel.
