    They're laughing because they didn't know how else to deal with something new. Kids like that need more experience so they can handle you better. When they get a little older they react differently.

    I once had a family cycle past me when I was dressed in a kilt and tweed waistcoat and jacket. As soon as the little girl passed she shouted to her mum "Titta på han!" ("look at he"). I almost stopped the mother as she passed me. I was going to ask her to say something to her daughter. I mean, a child that age should know the difference between the nominative and accusative - it's "titta på honom" not "titta på han"!
