I'm wondering how much electricity is needed to cause you to feel a "kick" as it passes through your body. Is a small battery enough? I was always said it wasn't.

Yes a small battery, like a AAA, could do it. You need to step up the voltage with a transformer. As a kid, I shocked my older sister like this using a small battery and a transformer I pulled from a clock or radio or something.
