Probably normal: Laughing, smiling, even some talking is within the normal variations for children during sleep. If she is healthy and happy and the noises are not disrupting her sleep, then it is not of concern. If the laughing becomes much more prevalent and begins to disrupt her sleep such that it interferes with her health and causes fatigue during waking hours, then a specialist may be needed.
