Movement with Dancing Nancy

 The children had so much fun waving the colored scarves in our Movement with Nancy class. She shows us how to warm-up our bodies with stretches and bends. We make a circle holding hands and take steps into the circle and out again. We move to music and with their imaginations the children become the leaves. Just like falling leaves, the scarves blew around and fell to the ground. Gross motor excercises under adult supervision allow children the opportunity to use their bodies in a controlled purposeful way.
