I was going to suggest to Dance Party too since I believe she's in a center or not home daycare and doesn't have the freedom just too go outside whenever.
I've done dance parties before but now I have two babies and my toddler gets rambunctious during nap time when I'm trying to keep it quieter so that the infants fall asleep. Anyways the CDs that I use for playtime or Circle time are more or less background noise. If I use Google I have to use the right phrase to get music without words because the music she plays has lyrics that I would hate for a child to repeat.
I was wondering if anybody had a suggestion for a good dance music CD that is 100% kid friendly.
Kids love dance music.but they always end up chasing eavh other in a circle till one falls and I turn the music off 😕🤔 dance music =run time for them
They both help define "personal space" so the kids understand someone being thisclosetosomeoneelse isn't really enjoyable.

I use circle rugs right now (towels work, too, in a pinch) because they won't leave the tape alone and trip over the hulas (most under 2, here, now) but it works all the same.

Sounds like a good time to have a dance party!
If they want to run/jump and act crazy and outside time is not an option, I'd put on some music and let them dance.
It's a great way to involve them all and keep them engaged.
Children with excess energy rarely listen or sit still and from what you described, their behavior is telling you they need to spend some of that energy.

Glad you've found a solution that seems to be working! happyface
but it works all the same.
