Be Featured on a Curious George DVD! – #CuriousGeorgeMoms

Exercise Your Creativity with Dance!

Everyone loves to dance, right? Football players whip out some crazy dance moves when they make a touch down. Your husband probably does a little dance at home too when his team scores. I pull out some sweet 80’s dance moves when I’m cooking dinner, lol. And, I am SO glad to see that my little girl loves to dance as much as I do – She has her favorite songs on the radio, and will yell “Dance?? Dance!!” until everyone in the house is doing silly dances with her too. Goofy? Yes. Sometimes embarrassing if we have company? For sure. But those giggles and twirls and wiggles? Priceless.

Join the Curious George Dance Party!

Just like my little monkey – Curious George loves to dance too. Dancing is a great exercise for little bodies – it builds coordination, creativity, and confidence. So grab your little dancers, turn on your video camera, and capture your families best moves for a chance to be featured in an upcoming Curious George DVD. How cool is that, right?

How it works:

You’ll want to head over to the Curious George Dance Party Contest site to read all the rules and regulations. But here’s a quick overview to get started:

Get a video of your cute little monkey dancing to the Curious George theme song. {You’ll find it on the contest site!} There’s a limit of 60 seconds per video, so no need for anything too complicated or time-consuming. Just have fun with it!
Submit your video and fill out the easy entry form. And do it soon – the deadline for submitting your awesome videos is April 2, 2012.
A panel of judges will choose 10 finalists, based on creativity, enthusiasm, and originality. Those 10 super fun videos will be posted on their site, so that fans can vote on their very favorite little dancer. I can’t wait to see the finalists!
The grand prize winner will have their moves featured on an upcoming Curious George DVD, a great Curiousity Kit filled with fun Curious George goodies, and maybe even a visit from George himself! There are also prize packages for all of the runners up too.

So what are you waiting for? Head on over to the contest page today to download the theme song – {Unless you’re like us, and have plenty of DVD’s to pop in for music} – and get your monkey-moves on today!

Have fun & Good Luck!
