My son (18 months old) loves to be tickled and I decided to do something that my mom did to me when I was little.
He was laying on the floor flat on his back, looking up at me standing above him, begging me to tickle him. However I didn’t feel like getting down to the floor.
So instead, I gently place my foot right on his tummy and start tickling him with my foot by wiggling it on his belly. He absolutely cracked up and was laughing up the storm.
So this leaves the question, has anyone else done this exact thing or am I the only one? I’m just curious if it’s common or not.


I did the opposite. I’d hold my son over my head and lower him down so his belly would hit the top of my head. It cracked him up every time. I called it baby hat. Sadly he is now taller than me. And I’m 6’1" 😭
