When you cry, your face makes some funny shapes. Imagine you're really sad and you start to cry, your eyes get all squinty because they're watering a lot. Your nose flares up like it's trying to breathe in more air. And your mouth pouts as if it’s saying, ‘Why me?’ These silly faces happen because the muscles on your face are working hard when you’re crying.
Examples
- When your dog gets lost, he howls and cries, his face looks really sad too.
