Tinsel Dancing For Toddlers and Preschoolers

November 6, 2021 By Sara Mullett Leave a Comment

Tinsel Dancing for Toddlers and Preschoolers is always a hit at any Christmas party and it’ll always come in handy to blow off some steam whenever it’s too cold or wet to go outside to play over the holidays.

This idea is very simple and it’s success really depends on the music that you play.  Here are a few suggestions that work really well and set the christmas spirits soaring. Some are Classical tracks and others are just classics! Just a word of warning, the tinsel does shed a bit, so be prepared to get the hoover out afterwards!

Tracks For Tinsel Dancing

1. Sleigh Ride, Santa Claus Party – Ferrante and Teicher

Nothing like a sleigh ride to get everyone feeling festive!

2. Let it Go & Vivaldi’s Winter – The Piano Guys

A must for all the Frozen fans and the piano guys play it with such style!

3. The Nutcracker Suite “March” – Tchaikovsky

Nothing like the Nutcracker to conjure up Christmas!

4. The Nutcracker Suite “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” – Tchaikovsky

It’s impossible not to dance to the The Sugar Plum Fairy!

5. The Nutcracker Suite “Trepak” – Tchaikovsky

Instant images of sledging through the snow!

When the novelty of the tinsel has worn off, you could swap it for jingle bells and here are a couple of perfect tracks to jingle along to.

6. Jingle Bells – Bing Crosby

Can’t miss this one out!

7. Sleigh Ride – The Ronettes

This one creates an instant Christmas party!

8. Sleigh Ride – The Andrews Sisters
