Some of the couple dances can be adapted to no partner dances in a circle. E.g. while adults dance St Bernard those with young children dance the Dog Waltz. Slide r 3 steps.Stamp, stamp. Slide l 2. in 2 out 2 turn around (turn single). Join hands again and sway arms in and out instead of the waltz-on.
Tune St Bernard or any waltz with long note at bar 3&4. e.g South Wind.

Use couple dances like Gay Gordons, Barn Dance, St Bernard Waltz, Rosza. They have the advantage that people can drop out when tired, or watch for a bit then join in.
