Who likes to daaaaaance? Take this dance cube when you’re out and about and need to... grooove on the mooove! Here's how to put it together:
- Stick this page to cardboard. Then, ask your grown-up to snip along the dashed lines.
- Fold along the dotty lines and stick the tabs shut.
- Roll the die and copy whichever dance move it lands on! Will it be the robot or island rhythms? The worm or fairy dance?
We KNOW that you are an awesome dancer! Doodle a step-by-step guide to one of your amazing dance routines.
Make up a cooool tune and some sweeet moves to go with it. Then dance like no one's watching. Fill the blanks with words from the word back to make up a new song. Doodle yourself rockin' out to Bandit's bangin' beats and make up your own cool rock star name. Put yourself in Dance Mode and give the moves a go. Color in a music note when you've done 'em. Let's booooogie!
Hup, hup, hup. Make the head and wristbands, then pop them on and give these moves a go: mountain hike, thwack, yoga (try the downward dog), juuump!, ballet twirls, power walking, balance, ruuun!, crawl, and chicken dance!
Top Tip: Take this page outside and drop a stone or leaf onto it. Whichever move it lands on... give it a go!
