Although I've been calling forever and I know things, I'm not currently

Been hired to lead a dance for a music school -- ages 5 and up to teens
and their parents and my contact asked if I could lead "dances that
encourage really paying attention to beat counts….throw in some music
education in addition to fun."
Pattycake polka is very beat-specific. Le Brandy has a bit where you're
counting to the music ("Un, deux, trois, poussez!"). Hard to know what
they're fishing for with the phrase "throw in some music education..."
Maybe mentioning how jigs feel different from reels... Something like
The Flying Scotsman would certainly get that point across, especially if
it followed something 2-ish like Galopede.
