How to Cultivate Children's Dance Emotion
Children dance reflects the life, thoughts, feelings and attitudes of children aged 3-6, so it has its own unique characteristics not only in subject matter and content, but also in vocabulary, action rhythm and form.

1. The theme is novel and vivid.

Because children are curious, imitative and imaginative, they like to listen to fables and dance anthropomorphic animal dances. Therefore, children dance's performances are mostly fairy tales and scientific fantasies, and his movements are mostly simulations, showing novel, lively and vivid artistic characteristics.

2. Dance vocabulary is simple and vivid

Because children are in the growth stage, their myocardial contractility is poor, their muscle fibers are thin, their elasticity is small, they are easy to get tired, their small muscle groups are underdeveloped and their motor nerves are imperfect, so children's dance movements are generally simple and natural, with clear lines, clear directions and sharp edges. For example, "step by step", with hands akimbo, the left foot takes a step to the left at the first beat, and the center of gravity is on the left foot. The second beat bends the left knee, and the tip of the right foot points behind the left heel. The third beat and the fourth beat are the same as the first beat and the second beat, and the directions are opposite. It is precisely because children think figuratively and love to imitate that the dance language is more vivid. Children often imitate the image characteristics of food through specific actions and express their attitudes and feelings towards things. Another example is: using broken steps, waving your arms on both sides to show birds flying, and holding your cheeks on your hands to show flowers.
