In the first of a series on doing organised lessons with children, Jan Hurst takes a look at dancing from all angles It is an acknowledged fact that children today are not doing enough physical activity in their day-to-day lives and that sport and physical exercise are habits that need to be instilled early on in life. Nannies can do their bit by introducing the children in their care to some or, at the very least, one of many physical activities at which we'll be taking an in-depth look. Let's start with dance.
