Sneezing makes us laugh because it feels funny and contagious. When someone sneezes, their body moves in a sudden way that surprises us, kind of like when you trip and fall. That surprise is what starts the laughter. And since laughing is something we often do together, seeing someone else laugh can make you want to laugh too!
Examples
- Your brother sneezes in the middle of a serious meeting, it's hilarious.
- You laugh when your dog sneezes because his silly face makes everything funny.
