you laugh when tickled, because the nerves that are stimulated on the skin or body part being tickled are affected by the same part of the brain that causes laughter..thus the correlation.

Because grown ups are tickling us and it sends tingling sensation to our brains.

Ticklish people only laugh when they are in a funny mood, otherwise it is just irritating to them. Put them in a silly mood and tickle away.

I think we laugh when we are tickled because the magic fairy inside everybody except for bitter old ladies jumps out and starts dancing when they feel someone tickling us. We are ticklish in different places because our fairies all live in different places. Some of our fairies move around and we are ticklish everywhere. I am 9 and my name is Gemma. My big sister Eve is ticklish on her knees.

WE LAUGH CAUSE WE ARE SENSITIVE IN SOME AREAS AND WHERE WE ARE SENSITIVE THE MOST...WE WILL LAUGH WHEN WE ARE TICKLED THERE.

Hi! My name is Emma! I am 6 years old! My granny helped me write this! I would like to tell you my tickling theory!

I am very ticklish! Granny tickles me all the time! I'm ticklish everywhere! But Especially my tummy!!! I laugh really hard when granny gently rubs her nails on my soft tummy!! I think I laugh when I'm tickled because a tickle bug magically comes in my tummy and sprays laughing gas!!
