Examining a ticklish child's abdomen can be, wellä ticklish. Using the fact that a person can't tickle himself is critical to solving the problem. Place your hand over the child's hand and then press. This should eliminate any feeling of tickling. If this works, then you can put your child's hand on top of your hand and press on his abdomen.
