What is the power of the humor in the education?
The humor allows to make the children of the anger pass in the enjoyment in a few moments only.

Seven ideas to use the power of the humor in the education :
However, it is not always easy to be funny. To use the power of the humor in the education recovers numerous situations (not exhaustive list of course but source of inspiration!) by keeping in head that we laugh with somebody and not at somebody.
1_Cross a message with a different voice :
A voice of robot, the voice of Donald Duck, that of a TV presenter … everything is conceivable since it is out of the ordinary,
2_Make the opposite of the standard :
For example, put on the socks of the child on the hands to incite him/her to get dressed only, to forbid him/her to tidy up something by insisting well on the prohibition.
3_Use objects as mediators :
For example, we can quote the example of a father who made cards read to the choice by his children when came the hour of the arrangement: they had to tidy up the number of objects indicated by the map.
4_Create poems or songs, theater stages to make cross instructions :
5_Be been thought of as a character :
For example, the control tower of the plane dragging on the ground and to imagine a scenario which obliges the plane to settle pile in its box of arrangement or then the stewardess who says with the gestures which are well: " the exit (of the bath, the house), it is this way! "
6_Make speak objects :
The toothbrush livens up and calls the children because it is bored and looks for teeth to be brushed, the bed is cold and needed somebody to warm it …
7_Imagine itself in places or improbable situations :
Trick which I use with my daughter a lot when she does not want to brush himself teeth: I tell her that it is a lion and that I am the veterinarian who has to verify what she ate during the day. I take the toothbrush and in every passage, I am amazed by what I see hung on in its teeth: " oh, a feather of ostrich, it was good? Oh, a piece of skin of zebra, it ran fast? And there, we would say a rest of antelope ".
