As a special educator for very young children, I do not recommend many videos for kids – especially those under the age of 5. As a mother of toddler twins, I’m still not big on videos. This is the exception.

As a teacher, I’m amazed at how Liz is able to construct a dance lesson that is so developmentally appropriate for even my two-year-olds. The gross motor skills of dance are paired beautifully with simple songs that aid in remembering the steps of the lesson. But what I love the most, as both teacher and mother, is the sheer creativity in which she goes through stretches and the introduction of some of the basic ballet moves. Incredibly imaginative and engaging!

As a mom, I sit and smile at my daughter and son as they go through all the movements, answer Liz as she asks questions or gives other ‘interactive’ prompts, and generally have a fabulous time getting up and moving. We’ve tried some dance classes for tots locally, and even being in an actual class with other kids has not been as positive an experience as this video has! I wish, wish, wish we lived near to Liz to take her actual classes, but this video is a great substitute…and we hope to see more very soon!

My grandchildren absolutely love this video! And it is fun for adults to do with them as well as their practicing by themselves. It teaches them basic vocabulary and techniques in a fun, fun way! As a dancer myself I was totally impressed with the quality. More videos by Petite Feet, please!!!

I think that this is one of the most innovative, fun and fresh dance videos for children that I have seen in a long time! I love her approach…it is kind, thoughtful, motivating, engaging and delightful. Her dance and story-telling were considerate for the ages of her audience and they had FUN doing it. I LOVE this DVD. Keep up the good work and let’s see MORE!!!
