Details
Overview
Feel the beat and move those feet to nine dancing games that help build early reading skills.
Freestyle freeze
Put the “act" in action verbs! Walk, wiggle, shake and shimmy as characters call out words. Freeze when the music stops!
Dance machine
Wave both arms in the air to make compound words. Complete three new words, and make up an original dance!
Rhyme time
Beat on the drum to complete Doodleburg rhymes. Enough correct answers will earn players a drum solo!
Dance like a dino
Shake, shake! Flap, flap! Listen and mimic the dinosaur's moves to dance to the music. The more matches, the more fun!
Doodle dance
Dance like feathers in the breeze to see a flying feather pattern on screen. Twirl and shake to make the screen come to life.
Banana boogie
Reach up, move around and smack fruits—big and small, green and purple, striped and bumpy—according to adjectives.
Party mix
Play the games in a random sequence, select specific games or customize a set of dances for a dynamic dance party!
Ways to play
Use body motion to dance, twist, twirl and more! Kids can see themselves on TV—no controllers needed.

The Learning Difference
Children dance to upbeat activities that can reinforce their understanding of action verbs and similes. They get ready for reading success by building vocabulary, recognizing letters and words, blending sounds into words and creating compound words. —Carolyn J., PhD, LeapFrog Learning Expert
