Talking Dancing With Your Children

Dancing With Your Children

Hey, Everyone.

Do any of you dance with your children? I dance with both of mine. I have two little ones. They are both a joy to dance with and I particulary had fun dancing with my eldest son when he was almost 2 or so because he loved how he could "get me" to respond when he drummed. When he was younger, I had him on my hip and we danced "together" then, too. My youngest I hold on my hip and we dance. Hey, I just feel it's a beautiful thing and my sons seem to take it that way, too. Do you dance with your chlidren? Share your experiences if you feel to.

Yup....my youngest (4) and I do that every chance we get. My oldest looks as both of us as we lost our minds (of course he is a teen..)

With my youngest we have been dancing since he was an infant and now that he is practicing his own rendition of break dancing (head spinning and all)...it is an excellent way to get a full body work out and the soul jumping.....wonderful fun!

Of course I don't have any children to dance with but I remember dancing with my father when I was young(er than I am now). It was a Saturday afternoon tradition. A great way to bond.
