Crank Dat Soulja Boy (Superman) dance the new Macarena?
Filed under: Toddlers Preschoolers, Media
There is a new dance craze sweeping the nation, it is so hip and easy that dance teachers are enlightening young dancers to do the new jig. Called "Crank Dat Soulja Boy (Superman)" and performed by Soulja Boy, it features fun, energy filled choreography easily learned by young and old alike. Apparently the dance is so fun to perform that even ballet teachers are jumping on the hip hop train and teaching it to students. I remember when my oldest son was about the age of the little guy in the above video, he got hip to the Macarena and we had to play the song for months until his interest waned. This song seems a little less annoying than the Macarena but I might not introduce it to my three year-old, I don't think I want to be doing th Superman dance for the next five months. What do you think? Cool dance or annoying fad that will haunt your home until spring time?

Well, I guess I am glad you cleared that up...I guess I shouldn't allow her to listen to the Beatles because they did drugs, and some of the songs were ??? at the time. or watch Scooby Doo--scooby snaks resemble paper drug hits. I probably shouldn't allow her in health class because they teach Sex education...Oh no, what will I do----You were strict with your kids, and they thanked you---Great!! I am not so blind that today's kids wouldn't hear it somewhere else if not the song--if they ask-- explain it(older kids) Use oppurtunities like this to make sure you know where your kids info comes from.
