Finding your monster-music moment
Start with a dragon that needs help learning a dance. The Dopey Dragon Dance uses repeatable movements such as flapping and wiggling, making it a natural backdrop to pretend-play. A grown-up can lead the first round, then deliberately make a silly mistake so everyone gets a turn to laugh and correct the dragon.
Try these ideas together
- 1
Practise a wing flap
Listen to Dopey Dragon Dance and try flapping slowly, quickly or with one wing at a time.
- 2
Make a tiny dragon nest
Choose a cushion or folded blanket to represent Dopey's resting place, then tell a short story about his busy day.
- 3
Build a pretend drumkit
Tap gentle rhythms on your knees and imagine how Dopey might answer with his big rainbow drums.
