We just got another boatload of snow, so on Sunday morning, when we were snowed in and couldn’t even get out of our house to make it to mass, we got our dance on.
Because why not?
Turns out that Cora and Owen’s awesome teachers for the past few years had often put on short little YouTube dances for them when they need to get the wiggles out.
We found most of Cora and Owen’s faves, and we found some more.
Not only does moving mid-day help increase concentration and focus (for everyone–not just kids!), but learning and practicing these dances will mean that our kids will be rockstars on the dance floor when it comes time for weddings, Bar and Bat Mitzvahs, and Quinceaneras in the next few years.
Win, win, win.
Here’s the skinny. . .

Thanks! My son and I did these this morning for our yet another snow day! I pinned them for when it is time for my students to be back in session at school. Thanks again!
