So for my Brownie troop to earn their Dancerize badge we decided to pick them up from school bring them back to my house and dance, dance, dance! It was so funny they danced, played freeze dance and decided they needed a little break. We put in the Hannah Montana DVD so they could dance and watch, whatever they felt like as we fixed their pizza for dinner. So we danced some more and had pizza. After that they danced some more, played some more freeze dance and was really getting tired, so alas the Dancing with The Stars segment. Alot of them loved the show and we tried to show some good dances, not so good dances and talked about body image some ( I am amazed & sad how 1st & 2nd graders are already so concerned with this, which is why I think that Dove Foundation is so important) and how the same dance can look so different because of the interpretation of the dance from the dancer and their choice of music can influence this. Of course we did not watch the complete thing (some of those outfits are a little much, plus I sometimes think they are to distract from bad dancing), but they loved seeing and guessing scores too. Then it was time for parents to pick up. All and all they had a great time and we had a great time with them. Of course, Gretchen had already asked me before all her friends came over to "Please don't dance mom, you might embarass me" and I have to respect that, because if you have seen me dance anything other than slow I should probably be embarassed too!
