We need children off the computers and getting some activity in their lives on a daily basis. But to be honest, kids just love the video games, and daily activity is nearly-impossible. DDR addresses the growing childhood obesity problem with activity through a video game. The Dance Platform becomes the controller of the video game. Kids absolutely love it for many reasons, and you will too. DDR promotes dance skills, friendship, friendly competition, cooperation, and best of all, children’s fitness. It features more than one level of difficulty and more than one mode, one of which is the dance game where children try to match the dance steps on the monitor with their foot movements on the www.schoolspecialty.com

Some schools are developing mentor programs where the better dancers help the lesser ones, giving both the mentor and mentee a great opportunity to develop skills in the areas of dance, leadership and communication. It’s all in good fun, and the competition stays friendly at all times. Studies have even shown that absenteeism drops during DDR days. Teachers report dramatic increases in social skills, leadership, self-esteem, and confidence. Enthusiasm and improvements in other physical activities also improve. It’s a “win-win” program your school should not be without.
