What is one ribbon patsch, pop, and circle idea? Can you share any ideas or details about the partner song ideas? Thanks.

Hold the ribbon in your hand as you patsch or circle or pop your other hand. I will try to get a post and video on that! Thanks for asking!

What is the best length for the ribbon? Would you use a similar length to wind wands, or shorter?

I am curious still about the one ribbon, pop, circle idea. How are you holding a ribbon and I’m assuming this is not a ribbon wand but a single strand of ribbon? And is that hand holding the ribbon still while the other hand is doing actions? I’m not getting this one but I am curious for more details if you can share. Thanks!!
