When we feel nervous or excited, our bodies react. Butterflies in the stomach happen because of a special reaction in the gut that starts when you're anxious. It's like your tummy is doing a little dance! Imagine you’re about to go on stage, your heart beats faster, and you might feel something fluttery in your belly. That’s your body getting ready for action.
Examples
- You feel nervous before your first day at school.
- Your tummy feels wiggly when you’re about to give a presentation.
- You get fluttery feelings right before singing in front of the class.
