Quote

In peekaboo, the baby can symbolically lose the connection and then quickly regain it. If you experiment with the time it takes to say peekaboo, from half a second, say, to two or three seconds, you can find exactly the length of time that brings the most giggles. Too short and there’s no mystery; too long and it’s too scary; and there you have the essence of the human romance with connection and disconnection and reconnection.
