Family Activity: Making Moves

A black and white image of an adult's legs and shoes and a child jumping.

To help keep healthy while we’re staying indoors it’s good to keep moving. Take a cue from Denzil’s paintings below and put on your favourite music and dance.

While you’re dancing take photos with a phone from interesting angles of moving feet, hands, legs and arms. Do your photos capture the energy of the dancing or the rhythm of the music?
