Keynote: Dr. Jean Feldman Better Bodies and Brains You learn on your feet, not on your seat! When children move, dance, and wiggle, more senses are activated and the message is more likely to get to the brain. Music and movement also emit endorphins which make you happy. In this workshop you’ll discover activities that will help children be their best physically, socially, and cognitively. Highlights will include: *Songs to start your day and get your blood going *Routines for balancing, stretching, and relaxing *Activities where children will cross the midline *Dances to reinforce phonics and math skills *Ideas to make you jump, hop, pretend, and smile!
