The skeleton dance is a fun and silly dance where people pretend to be skeletons. You know how when you go to a Halloween party or see Halloween decorations, there are always skeletons? Well, people decided that it would be really funny to pretend to be skeletons too!
To do the skeleton dance, you kind of pretend that your body is made of bones. You might walk around like a zombie or move your arms and legs in a jerky, jumpy way. Some people make clicking sounds with their teeth to sound like bones tapping together.
The skeleton dance can be really simple or it can be really complicated! Sometimes people do it as part of a group or in a big dance routine. Other times, it's just something silly that someone does to make their friends laugh.
You don't have to be a real skeleton to do the skeleton dance! Anyone can do it, no matter how old or young you are. It's just a fun way to pretend for a little while that you're a spooky, scary skeleton.
