Preschool Humor

I was driving Dylan to preschool and he was in one of his "silly" moods.  Somehow he had the Sponge Bob Square Pants song stuck in his head and decided he would make it his own.  He started with "Squonge Bob Quare Pants" and continued from there.  I decided I would join in the fun and added "Squonge Bob Spair Pants".  You would not believe the belly laugh that one produced.  Preston, not sure what was going on, but plenty able to follow social cues, looked over at his brother and let out a sympathetic laugh.  It was one of those moments you wish you could freeze.  As silly as we were being, the three of us laughing, all for different reasons, was priceless. 

For those of you who may be a bit out of touch with preschool humor, let me enlighten you. Here are some basic rules.

• Saying anything in a silly way - mixing up words, throwing a random word in a song, etc. is hilarious
• Basic slap stick comedy rules apply - i.e. The Three Stooges... pretending to run into things, hit yourself on the head, or bop yourself in the eye and then proceed to fall down definitely calls for a good laugh
• Anything potty goes - words, noises, etc.  If it has to do with the potty, it's apparently pretty funny

So there, now you know what makes Dylan tick - for now at least.
