Laughter yoga workout & songs for kidsMay 01, 2008
By Michelle Pettit
Laughter Yoga instructor Laura Gentry invites children to join in on the experience of Laughter Yoga. In the video 20 children -- boys and girls of various ages (from pre-school to approx. 12-years-old) participate in laughter yoga exercises. The group activities involve movement and sound. What could be better than getting exercise, feeling better, and interacting with others? This is natural for young children who love to play, act silly, dance and sing...but some older children become inhibited and embarrassed...(and that kind of attitude can dampen the rest of our lives!) This video is a great reminder to get up and move and interact and laugh. It can be used like a workout video or as activities to incorporate with your own children. I am a bit of a quiet, introspective person and it is not my usual routine to be exuberant and noisy and interactive -- however I came away with higher energy and a positive outlook when I allowed myself time to be silly and to laugh.

Laughter Friends is a Great Icebreaker!Apr 25, 2008
By Kathleen Peer
Last summer I participated in a twelve-day young-adult gathering where Laura Gentry led the group in daily laughter sessions. It became one of the highlights of the gathering. I enjoyed the exercises so much that I bought the DVD to share with my adult friends, and to use as an icebreaker. It makes me laugh every time I play it.

My 8 & 10 year old children have enjoyed this video tremendously! (One can't help but giggle even while listening to it from the other room ~ hahahha!) Kids will get their insides jiggling from laughter, leaving them refreshed & happy (and they sleep better too!). We love it!
