I love the idea of getting kids off the couch and computer while still having fun. One of my favorites this season is the Elmo Tickle Hands! Have you heard about these? When a kid puts on a pair and presses Elmo’s nose, the mitts will vibrate and they will hear fun phrases from Elmo and o course that famous giggle. If you press the nose again—they can dance to the “Tickle Hand Groove.” The hands come with a DVD that teaches kids how to do the dance step by step. The video below is a demonstration of how it works.
Dancing is a great calorie burner and this can be a really fun thing for your kiddos to do with their friends! If you have a young one to buy for this holiday season, I would definitely buy something that will improve their health and appreciation for physical activity. This toy (and many others) can prove to your child that fitness is fun!
