If you have ever wanted some new songs for your party, wonder no more. The below songs will make sure your party is a hit!
My five year old wanted to do listen to songs and dance.
Techno Chicken is another fun tune to get your dance on. I love the close-ups of the chicken, dancing and its head bopping along to the beat. This tune is a catchy one for your next dance party and I am sure if you had the video going it will put a smile on everyone’s face too.
He wanted to watch YouTube and told me that we should have a “Dance Party Mummy!” I then thought why not put YouTube on the TV and have a dance party as it was just my little boy and I and it would be a bit of fun.
These songs and dance moves are a bit silly but are a lot of fun and had my five-year-old in fits of giggles.
Pen Pineapple Apple Pen is a weird and catchy song, even if you think it is horrible you will catch yourself singing it later. Trust me, I have and you will be singing it too!
Stop looking, here are the perfect songs for your next party
You might have seen many other people on YouTube having dance-offs against the green alien and seeing who did the moves better? I must say that my five-year-old really did every move the alien did and thought it a giggle-fest at the same time. Have you had a dance-off with this green alien? If so how did you go?
When hubby and the twins came home they found both of us rocking it out to the green alien and doing the dance moves like he was. Alexander really has these moves down pat and loves it.
Enjoy and I hope you all have a great family dance off!

Hubby and I have survived our first ballet concert weekend. Yes there were two performances. One was at 6pm on Saturday and the other for 2.30pm Sunday. The Saturday one we had to be at the hall for 5pm and the Sunday one we had to be at the hall for 1.30pm. Saturday we did not get home until about 9.30pm and kids had a very late dinner of weet-bix and then collapsed in their beds and went straight to sleep. We are all very tired from Saturday but had to repeat the whole saga again for Sunday’s matinee show.
I know I said saga, it was not too bad. Kids getting hair and makeup on, plus the much needed glitter hair spray was a chore unto itself. Making kids sit still to put on hot red lipstick is hard to do. I find it hard enough to colour in the lines myself, let alone putting it on a moving child!
Oh well, I handled this and managed to have some success. See image of the girls and I below. We are all wearing makeup and ready for the kids to do their Sunday concert (well today’s concert)
The girls and I waiting for them to do their Frozen Ballet for the second time.
I volunteered to make cakes and some cupcakes to sell for the dance teacher. I made a frozen inspired cake for the first show. The cake was a double layered marble cake of chocolate and vanilla lemon, with a layer of freshly whipped cream. The cake was topped off by some blue frozen inspired butter icing and finished off with some icy sparkles and heart sugar decorations.
Frozen Cake. A double layered marble cake of chocolate and vanilla lemon. In the middle of the layers there was freshly whipped cream and topped off by butter icing and frozen inspired decoration.
I was told by many that saw the cake or had some that it was great, inspired and wonderful. I thought that this was very nice and was grateful for the fabulous feedback. I did want to create a special treat for the first performance and also wanted to see if I could tie it in with the twins performance with their class.
I wish I had a shot of what the cake looked like when I cut it up to serve. However I never got shots so you can only imagine. Sorry everyone. Next time I will make sure to get some done.
Cupcakes were created for the second show and you can see them here with the image below.
Here are my cupcakes that I made for today’s performance (Sunday matinee show). They were vanilla lemon cupcakes with choc chips. Finished with chocolate butter icing. However I accidentally added too much cocoa and it tastes more like straight chocolate than just icing. I used organic cocoa from the health food shop. This has given such a great outcome and tastes unreal.
The girls as Elsa from Frozen for their ballet concert. This was taken at the kids dress rehearsal. They looked amazing and all the costumes for all the classes were just stunning!
The girls great aunts made the trek to come and see the kids in their first ever ballet concert. The kids had a blast and loved the fact that their great aunts were there to share the fun of day. After the girls concert today which was the last one, we all went out to dinner.
I can’t believe that I am so exhausted after this weekend. I think I need a mini holiday to just decompress and relax. I know it might sound strange but racing everywhere and doing so much with noise and such energy all around you, I am keen for quiet and doing absolutely NOTHING!
How have you managed dance concerts? Do your kids participate in them? If they don’t is there something similar that has the same affect? A sport or a hobby that takes over the family for a bit? Let us know. Do you have any coping strategies that might help me or others if we do this again next year?
I am now off to bed for some much needed rest. Pity the kids have to go to school tomorrow, a sleep in would be nice. Yes silly me, if it was holidays they would wake up early wouldn’t they? I bet tomorrow I will have to wake them up.
