It has been quite the year for dance littles. First, “So You Think You Can Dance” announced its new format, which will feature competitors between the ages of 8 and 13 (we crashed the NYC auditions and the talent was insane!), and now Ellen DeGeneres’ newly released “tWitch and Allison’s Kids Dance Challenge” allows kids […]
