By Emily Lambert November 8, Communication Conveying ideas effectively and identifying messages others are attempting to convey. Conflict Resolution Bringing others together to resolve conflict and reconcile differences.
Decision-making Making high-quality decisions based on limited information. Embracing Diversity Understanding others' perspectives and dealing effectively with different types of people. Execution Setting goals, monitoring progress, and taking the initiative to improve your work. Innovation Generating novel solutions and creative ideas to solve problems. Managing Others Taking charge of a group and motivating group members toward common goals.
Persuasion Convincing others of a direction, activity, or idea, and influencing decision-making. Teamwork Working effectively with people and cooperating with others. Work on a complex, dynamic choreography that includes moves at all heights of the body and involves various body parts arms, feet, neck. Be careful when you choose the music. Ideally, your movements need to follow the beat. Does your kid love to play Wii games? Your kid can perform a song. Just be sure to choose a hard level if you want to impress the audience.
Do you have a pet your kid loves to spend time with and train? Parrots or dogs make awesome stage companions. However, it is not enough to display the tricks your pet can do. You should try to build a story around the tricks and think of interesting outfits for your kid and the pet.
A duet with your parrot or a bank robbery with your dog as a partner in crime can wow the audience. If, for example, your kid plays the piano and also has a friend who sings beautifully, you can opt for a duo. A win-win combination that will allow both kids to showcase their talent and receive a big round of applause as a reward.
Maintaining your balance on a hoverboard sounds like a difficult task as it is. However, many kids master hoverboards and are able to perform amazing tricks that make adults shiver. Choosing a catchy song and performing dance moves on the hoverboard will more than likely amaze the onlookers! Can your kid ride the bike without hands, jump over obstacles, and perform other tricks without getting injured?
Then you are set for an impressive act! For added intensity, you can accompany the routine with a peppy song. With the right tricks that will keep the audience on its toes, a roller skating routine can be quite impressive. There are many available videos that you can use as a source of inspiration for your act. Just make sure the stage is big enough for you to perform safely and try to make the routine as complex as possible.
Adding music and moving to the beat will make your routine even more exciting to watch. No matter what your kid decides to recite, make sure the outfit suits the theme of the poem. Using background music at a low volume can intensify the message your kid is trying to transmit to the audience. Using light effects can also help the audience get in the right mood. It is even better if your kid recites an original poem.
No matter how old or young, puppet shows are always fun to watch! Puppets can do anything: dance, sing, recite, etc. You will need puppets, a puppets stage, and, obviously, a text. You can use a ready-to-perform script and let kids just pantomime the dialogue or you can write and use your own text. The possibilities are endless: routines from movies and TV shows, musicals, fairy tales and fables adaptations, original plays, etc.
Nothing makes an act more entertaining than getting the audience involved in what is happening on stage. For instance, your kid can play with electricity circuits.
Asking the audience if you should move a switch or change a battery, a light bulb, or the voltage and observe the effects will keep everybody hooked and craving for more.
Just make sure the songs are popular enough for everybody to know the lyrics. Another classical choice. However, you can add originality to the act by choosing a theme: fairy tale, superheroes, Disney characters, High School Musical, Bollywood, etc. Your imagination is the only limit!
Keep in mind that, apart from specific physical abilities, costumes play a crucial role in themed cheerleading routines. Ready to walk down the catwalk and dress for success? You can either opt for a serious fashion show or go for a parody. If you are serious about it, kids could present their own creations made of the most unexpected materials: magazines, feathers, leaves, cups, playing cards, etc.
If you are going for a parody, you can have models stumble, walk funnily, combine clothes unexpectedly, etc. If you opt for a miming act, the first step is to create a unique look for your kid. That includes face painting and outfit. Once you are done with this part, you can focus on what your kid will mime and work on the perfecting moves. Your kid can mime activities, feelings, professions, etc.
If you want to get the audience involved, you can have it guess what you are miming. With this routine, you are sure to address everybody, regardless of age! Make sure to choose popular songs and add a humorous touch to your performance and you will more than likely have everybody cheering for you.
Then you can take this act a step further and show off your talent using a random audience member. You could even let the audience decide the theme.
There is no need for fancy and expensive costumes and props. Just have the kids enjoy themselves while re-enacting their favourite movie scenes. Then opting for a drumming routine might be the best idea. Any object will do if it allows your kid to get the right sound: a bucket, a box, plastic bottles, a saucepan, etc.
The more unusual the object, the more amazed the audience will be. From fancy letters to characters and even landscapes, graffiti allows kids to express themselves and unleash their creativity in a unique way. This is the ideal choice for a group act. For instance, you can work on a ballet routine and add a disruptive element to the mix: a dancer who forgets the choreography, stumbles, attempts to steal the show, etc.
Of course, it can be any type of dancing routine: hip-hop, breakdance, etc. If not, there is still hope. You can think out the act humorously and have the kid fail as much as possible. The originality of the routine will come from the way the kid reacts to failure and manages the situation.
Kids love to cook and decorate sweets. So why not turn it into a show?
