The Dance of a Child
I'm at the National Faculty Leadership Conference for the next few days, so I'll try to jot down a few ideas.
Last night during a reception time, I happened upon a conversation between a professor of dance and a professor of engineering. (Maybe this should start: "An engineer and a dancer walk into a bar . . .") The engineer, in his good-natured desire to relate to the dance teacher, began relating a story about his own 2 year old son. "He just loves to move to the music. We've worked out a little routine to Peter and the Wolf. I think dance is so wonderful."
What do you think the reaction of the dance professor was?

started singing "do tha conga" by miami sound machine.
Depends on the type of dance s/he was a professor of:
Modern - "Oh that's fantastic! The natural movement of children is dance at its purest form!"
Ballet - "Fool! Never allow a child to ruin our sacred art. They must be properly trained in technique, choreography..."
:)
Am excited to hear the actual reaction.
If he was quick-witted enough, maybe he told a story of how is three-year-old makes stuff with Lincoln-Logs.
