I love to dance with my kids, and when cousins come into the
picture it’s a Dance Party! (Dancing with my kids is my exercise when I can’t
get out and walk the dog. So here are some fun ways you can keep your kids entertained
and dancing for an good hour, yes I promise a good hour of dancing exercise for
momma’s and kids here is my game plan:
Lighting: multi colored Twirly flashy light ball - I wish I knew the name of this said thing but
you can find one for about $17 on sale, I got mine at Lowes and then bought
another one because 2 is better than one. With the multi colored twirly light
ball going I turn of the lights and just let the colors dance around the room.
Things to dance with: puppets, cheer leader pom poms scarfs, dress up clothes, silly hats, ribbon
streamers , makes sure if it’s to dark you use another light room to put in the dress up cloths so no one
gets hurt.
Music : we like to dance in our living room so we will put
on Pandora on, if it’s really impromptu I have my smart phone with Amazon Prime
music on it with a blue tooth speaker to use for more sound. I like Rover Beats
T12 for this, it’s small and portable, so if we are outside its great as well.
I like to put on Amazon Prime play list for a long dance party, my favorite
play list is Songs to bug your parents, honestly one hour of dancing to this
music will be enough for a long time but it’s great songs to dance to because
they are so silly.
Other tips: I like to
dance, with my kids, once I stop they usually will too, that’s just how it
works. I also like to put in some our our family favorite songs, along with
silly ones like the Chicken Dance. Oh yeah and move furniture out of the way so
you have plenty of room to dance, better yet go out side! We have lots of fun!
