Buzzy’s hand dance

Make a tiny dance with just your hands.

3 minutes · Ages 1–3 · No supplies · With a grown-up

Try it together

  1. Sit comfortably together and hum a tune you know.
  2. Open and close your hands to the tune, then give a gentle clap.
  3. Pause the music and hold still. Start again when your child shows interest.

Follow their little lead.

Your child can watch, copy, or invent their own dance. Keep the pace comfortable and stop when they’ve had enough.

Read the idea, then put the screen aside. You can stop whenever your child is ready.
