      More ideas with this video<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \n
      • If you can’t tap along, maybe a friend can tap your arm or foot for you so that you can feel the beat of the music.<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Can you stamp your feet to the music? Can you tap your shoulders or your head? Move your fingers<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • Maybe try playing along with a shaker, or tap something that makes a sound that you like. A box of cereal?<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
