This unit transforms familiar toys into a gateway for Nursery students to explore fundamental movement skills through imaginative dance. By connecting movement to beloved toys, students develop body awareness, spatial understanding, and creative expression in a context that feels like play rather than formal learning. The progression from solo exploration to partner collaboration builds both physical confidence and early social skills.
