Children and robots dancing to video games!

And you thought you were good at "Just Dance 2."a

By Winda Benedetti

You know who likes dancing? Children. Also, robots.a

In fact, the tots and androids we've rounded up for you today don't just enjoy dancing, they enjoy dancing video games. And as everyone knows, dancing video games are all the rage these days.a

With that in mind, first, I give you your daily dose of viral cute. Here we have two pint-size twins dancing to OutKast's "Hey Ya" while playing "Just Dance 2" on their Wii. It's an adorable pop culture explosion!a

Yes, this dancing duo has racked up a whopping 2 million-plus views with this video. You know why? Because they're gooood.a

On a somewhat less adorable though more cerebral note, I now give you a video featuring a robot learning to dance to "Dance Dance Revolution" (which is one of those old skool dance games).  This Purdue University undergrad decided to program the robot to dance as part of his summer research project. Probably because he didn't have children to program.a

Clearly, Darwin the Dancing Robot is nowhere near as talented as the kids above. But give him time, oh, give him time.a

(Thanks to Kotaku for the heads up.)a
