I’ve said it a thousand times.

△ with one hand.
□ with the other.

How hard could it be?

Famous last words.

This one has taken me a WHILE, which might be exactly why I love it.

Find the pattern. Lose the pattern. Get frustrated. Come back. Get a little better.

There’s a lot more happening here than learning a hand trick.

And pretty soon, we’re taking that idea somewhere new.

Something’s in the BAG. 👀

We spend years learning about things.

Meanwhile, you’re walking around in a body you haven’t come close to mastering.

I find that fascinating.

Find a movement you can’t do. Stay with it long enough to feel yourself getting better. Because you still can. Follow along to learn your body!

We tend to think of rhythm as music.

But rhythm is everywhere.

In our hands. Our steps. Our breath. The way we speak. The way we move through a day.

Find the rhythm first.

Then see what your hands can do with it.

I love activities. Our family does plenty of them.

But I also think kids need hours that belong to nobody’s agenda but their own.

Time to build something nobody assigned. Practice something nobody asked them to practice. Get bored. Get interested. Abandon an idea. Start another one.

We spend so much energy developing our children’s abilities.

Sometimes I wonder if the most important thing we can give those abilities is room to show up.

Leave a little white space in childhood.

Frustration gets a bad reputation. We treat it like something went wrong.

But I can’t do this → let me try again → nope → adjust → again → WAIT, I GOT IT is one of the most important loops we can practice.

And these ridiculous little hand movements let us practice it without much at stake.

Get frustrated. Laugh. Reset. Go again.

That’s learning.

Some days we don’t need another productivity trick.

We need to get out of our heads and into our hands.

Try the movement. Miss the pattern. Find it again. Then get on with your day.

Hands up. Brain on. 🧠
