The key to turning the frown on a child's face into a smile doesn't mean forking out for a gadget - because all they really want is a cuddle. Hugs, birthday parties and playing with friends are more likely to make a youngsters grin than iPads or new clothes,a survey shows.
Mothers are more likely to make their children smile than fathers, and David Cameron was voted the No.1 famous face to make them sad.
Parents said their offspring are most likely to make them smile - generally, ten times a day or less. Children, however, are little rays of sunshine - with 42 per cent claiming to smile constantly and 13 per cent saying they smiled 5 million times a day, they told Colgate.
