"Kids need to move their bodies so that the brain's ability to process sensory information can develop and refine. That's why they have an innate desire to dance and move. Compliment your toddler's efforts to dance. Smile, laugh, and clap your hands. This stimulates the mid-brain or limbic system where emotions are processed. Kids love it when their parents act silly. It can be a big relief not to feel like someone else is always in charge. "
