Dora Barnyard Dance Game

Little dancers can take turns with the spinner and EVERYONE can dance like the animals with Dora! See more Dora Ballet Activities

Catch Dora & friends every day on Nick & Nick Jr.

This craft requires extra parent involvement and a watchful eye, because it may require sharp tools or intricate handiwork.

Create with us skills involve self-expression, experimentation, and imagination through visual arts (like painting and sculpting), dramatic play, cooking, and dance.

Move with us skills include: gross motor (like running and dancing), fine motor (like tracing and cutting), healthy habits, and safety awareness.

Ages: 3-6

Materials

Dora Barnyard Dance Spinner
Heavy card stock or cereal box
Scissors
Drinking straw
Sticker paper
Brad fastener

Directions

STEP 1: Print the Spinner Template
Print one set of the <a href="dora-barnyard-dance-spinner.jhtml">Dora Barnyard Dance Spinner</a> onto sticker paper.
STEP 2: Stick to Cardstock
Peel off the backing of your sticker paper and adhere to heavy card stock or a cardboard cereal box. (Kids can help with this step.)
STEP 3: Cut and Attach the Pieces
Cut out the two pieces of the spinner. Punch a hole in the center of the round piece with the point of your scissors just large enough to fit in a drinking straw. Snip the drinking straw so that it sits inside the hole. Attach the arrow spinner to the game with a brad, leaving room for the spinner to move easily.
STEP 3: Choose Your Music
Now that your spinner is ready, choose your favorite barnyard music.
Step 4: Everyone Takes a Spin
Gather your group and let everyone have a turn with the spinner. When the spinner stops everyone does that barnyard dance move.
