DIY Rainbow Dancing Wrist Bands

Erin loves to show off her dancing skills!

Do your kiddos love moving and grooving? If so, try out these super simple DIY rainbow dancing wrist bands! We use these all the time at the library, and they’re an awesome and colorful way encourage dancing and self expression with your little ones.

What you need:

  • Shower curtain rings or adult-sized hair elastics
  • Colorful ribbon, cut into 12″–18″ lengths (You’ll want at least three, though having a rainbow of colors is pretty cool.)

What you do:

Simply tie the ribbons onto the hair elastic or shower curtain ring. Have your kids hold the ribbon dancers or slip them on their wrists. Now they can dance and enjoy the movement of the ribbon as they twirl and sway.

Not sure what songs to dance to with your child? Check out the music artists listed below. They are the best of the best when it comes to kids music, movement and fun!
