Tom’s dance is the perfect type dance to segue into the “spiral” dance! No partner needed, and after doing the spiral in and out (led by you), you can march them all over your room, or even into other available spaces.
My other go to dance is Galopede. The A1 can be a simple forward and back twice. Doing a longways assumes the kids will partner up.
Let us know how you do!

Here's one.  They have to know the colors of the clothes they are wearing.  It's a circle.

Circle left, right
Forward and back .....

Those wearing red, for instance, skip in the inside.  Then skip the other way back to place.

Hi Folks,

I've got my collection of family dances that I use with mixed age groups. But I wonder if anyone has recommendations for family dance stuff when you don't have the full family?

What's good for ~12 pre-schoolers (age 3 to 5) when they aren't dancing with their parents; and you have maybe 2 other adults total. It seems dubious they'd get through even two dances, so give me your favorite if you have one.

Thanks!
