Freeze Dance with Body Awareness


Instructions: Put spot dots (or pieces of scrap paper) on the floor, enough for at least one per child. Tell the children that the dots/paper stay on the floor, ie don't pick them up. Play upbeat music and dance. Stop the music and call out a body part. The children have to put that body part on the dot/paper. Start with easy body parts: hands, individual fingers, feet. Progress to harder body parts like elbow, shoulder, or belly button. Resume playing music and dancing. Repeat until song is over or children tire of the game.
