My all time favourite dance to do with groups including children is Old King Glory. It is a playparty which is sung by all while it is danced. I learned it directly from Marian Rose, an amazing dance teacher in Vancouver, BC. Here is the link I found online to a document by Marian, which includes Old King Glory as well as several other great dances. If you have any questions about how to do it, you can contact me and we can talk about it. I can say that *every single time* I do this dance with kids someone says, "Let's do it again!"
