Summary
This study looked at whether laughter yoga or finger puppet play can help preschool children feel better emotionally and become more resilient. 90 kids were split into three groups: one did laughter yoga twice a week for four weeks, one did finger puppet play twice a week for two weeks, and one did neither. Parents and teachers filled out questionnaires to measure changes in play behavior and social-emotional well-being.
