[HANASHIR:10326] Re: Songs about Dance

[Marsha Fensin <mfsings...>]

Actually, rather than do a song about dancing, why don't you and the kids
dance to songs about Torah.  Do hand motions, point to the Torah, march,
skip--whatever.  Use rythm instruments.  The, when they get old enough to
obsrve the Torah being marched around the synagogue at a Torah service,
they will be old hands at it.  The dancing is right there in the
tradition.  Some songs you might want to use are Torah Torah, Yisrael
V'oraita, Sisu V'simchu, an upbeat Etz Chayim, Rommemu, etc.
