Swing Kids

My little sister and her friend got together and put together a minute long swing demonstration for their other friend history class project. The project was about the swing kids movement in pre WWII Gremany.

Maddy (on the right) and her friend jake (in the middle) learned how to "fake" swing last year when they were in the school play Grease. They learned how to do all the flips and spins together so while it's not a real swing step they look super showy.

I help Maddy get dressed for it. She's wearing one of my older vintage 40's dresses and I did her hair in a pin curl wave, which was all that could be done as she has super short hair otherwise. 

It was a fun little distraction this morning :)
