Is there anything better than a baby’s laughter? Dad has this little one in stitches as he… plants cucumbers? What’s so funny about that? 🤔 The answer has a lot to do with baby’s expectations. Young children have strong reactions to the unexpected. When something surprising occurs they first assess the risk. If they perceive danger then tears are likely. But what if something isn’t dangerous… it’s just plain weird? Think about this one from baby’s growing perspective. At home, daddy isn’t known for throwing things on the ground. In fact, just the opposite. When something falls on the floor, he’s always quick to pick it up. So when he starts suddenly - and repeatedly - throwing cucumber plants on the ground… now THAT’s funny. For babies, safe + unexpected = comedy gold. This great video was posted to IG by edibleuprisingfarm.
