Board Games for Dance Class
I am a firm believer in having as many tools on hand as possible for days when you need to quickly re-engage students, bring the class together, and/or reenforce a concept you're working on in a new way. Today's episode is full of ideas for physical games that you can buy and keep on hand to easily achieve these goals without the work of DIY-ing or prepping materials in advance.
All games mentioned in today's episode that are still available on the market are linked below. Pop's Culture Shoppe is my local game store (owned by my parents!), so I've linked any available through them here - they ship internationally! For those not available through them, I've provided Amazon links, but encourage you to check with your local game store first!
Seek-a-Boo
Move & Groove is unfortunately discontinued, but the same company makes a very similar toddler-oriented dice-roll game called Roll & Play that you can get here
Prima Ballerina is also unfortunately discontinued, but you could diy-it by printing pictures of dancers, cutting them in half, and laminating the pieces.

Twister
Balance Beam/Stepping Stone Set Amazon Link

After the show, I found this giant foam "exercize die," that I thought would be a good addition
Here is a set of blank foam dice with dry erase sides for infinite re-use!
