4 Reasons You Should Dance With Your Kids Daily

I grew up a competitive gymnast, started competitive cheerleading when I was 8 years old, danced and cheered all through high school, coached and choreographed for a high school team while I was in college and here I am, 30 with 2 kids and dancing on the daily. 

If you don’t dance with your kids, start. I mean it. Dancing is the best thing every and believe me, you don’t have to be good at it for it to be fun!

Here are 4 reasons I think you should dance with their kids daily:

1. Exercise 

What better way to exercise than to not realize you’re exercising at all? I’m not a fan of running and I’m not a fan of the gym so dancing is my jam. And it can be yours too.

2. Relieves Bad Moods

I swear, dancing brings so much joy into our home not only for me, but for the kids. If I’m having a bad day (or a terrible day), dancing with my kids always brings a smile to my face. If my kids are pouting or crying or whining or heck, if even if Ava’s throwing a tantrum, I can turn on some music and start dancing and the tears on both kids are completed wiped a way — instant smiles all around.

3. Bonding

I truly feel closer to my babies when I dance with them. It’s the most wonderful bonding experience, if you ask me!

4. It’s fun!

Nope, you don’t need toys to have fun! A little bit of music, your body and you’re set for a good time!

Grab your kids and dance today, whether it’s for 3 minutes or 3 hours and I promise, you’ll want to make it your daily tradition.
