Teddy In Three

Description

Prepare for the Proms' waltz music by moving a teddy to a simple one-two-three pulse together at home.

What to prep

  • One soft toy
Cost: FreeBest time: Anytime

Play guide

  1. 1One person gently pats a steady "one, two, three" on their lap while the other holds a teddy.
  2. 2Let teddy touch the tabletop on one, then sway it gently on two and three.
  3. 3Swap pulse-maker and teddy-mover. Try keeping the same pattern as the counting gets a little slower or quicker.

Success signals

The pair coordinates a concrete action with a repeating three-count pattern.

If it's tricky

Three counts are too much: let the adult count and the child give teddy one gentle landing at a time.
