Get Moving

Make “wings” for yourself and your tot by tying colorful scarves to your wrists, or fashioning them another way. Pretend to take off, soar, turn, and land. Add music. You might turn it into a game by periodically stopping the music; encourage your tot to stop flying and land in a nest anytime the music stops.
