Total Time Needed: 1 Hour
You already know your toddler's got rhythm, so invite her to a living-room dance party.
Materials
- Pieces of colorful fabric or scarves -- anything shiny, silky, or draping
Instructions
- Bring out a few pieces of colorful fabric or scarves -- anything shiny, silky, or draping -- and let her twirl them around as she moves.
- You can use the fabric for a dancing game of peekaboo, hold some up for a makeshift curtain, or tie it on for a swinging skirt. Try holding two corners each and wave the fabric like a parachute, in time to the music.
- If your child's pretty steady on her feet, hold one corner each and let your child spin toward you into the fabric, then pull it to send her twirling away again.
