What makes my 4 year old smile activity

We have been busy doing smiley face themed crafts & activities! My son (photo above) made handprint smiley faces by painting just his palm area yellow and making a print. He made thumbprint eyes and then drew on a mouth with marker. I wrote the "What Makes Me" and he write "Smile." I asked him what made him laugh, smile, or laugh and he answered with everything from America's Funniest Home Videos to eating with Grandma to going outside. This will be cute to look back on when he is older!

I also made handprint and thumbprint smiley faces with my 1 yr old daughter and wrote the saying "Don't worry, Be happy!"
