Keep The Beat Silent

Description

After Groovers, keep stepping through four silent counts while the adult’s clap disappears, then see whether the clap returns with your feet.

Cost: FreeBest time: Anytime

Play guide

  1. 1The adult claps eight comfortable steady beats while both people step gently in place.
  2. 2The adult stops clapping for four counts while both keep the same stepping pace, then starts clapping again.
  3. 3Try once more with the child as clap leader. The shared challenge is simply to land close to the returning beat.

Success signals

The child keeps a steady movement through a brief silence and notices whether the returning beat still lines up.

If it's tricky

If stepping is hard, tap fingertips on a table instead.
