Teach your kids to Smile more and say cheese


Teach your kids to smile more .... say cheese :
My daughter has reached the stage where everything I do for her seems to be FROWN worthy.  So I came up with a little game and told her that it takes 2 muscles to smile and 100 to frown. I smiled and said see mummy is using 2 muscles and Sarrah is using 100 muscles, now do you want to smile or frown? And she smiled instantly.  
So now everytime she frowns which is super often all, I need to say is 2 muscles to smile and a 100 to frown, and she smiles before i can complete the sentence. And sometimes she even tries to take my smile away.
Psst ... A little secret it actually takes 12 muscles to smile and 11 muscles to frown. It takes 2 muscles to twich your lips upwards to form a smile whether or not the emotion is attached to it.     Wink
