The obvious thing is the wit, and the irony, but there's also a sort of spiritual simplicity in Woodstock and Snoopy, silent clowns who have the deepest thoughts about the human conundrum.

But most importantly, he teaches all ages that if you can learn to laugh at the things that cause you the most pain you will be the strongest of all.
