Hi Brigid, thanks for your comment. It is such a cute dance and I also love that everyone gets to be the leader. Nordic Sounds is amazing – I plan to spend some more time over the holidays getting some new pieces ready to learn with my students. 🙂 Happy holidays!

I love the Nisse! The children love the dance and also learning about this frequently seen mischief maker!

YAY! So glad to hear this – my students love this dance! Gwen, I should put you in touch with Christie- she has been incredibly helpful to me in passing along some Scandinavian dances. Send me an email at musicquilt@hotmail.com and I will put you two in touch! 🙂

I like that everyone gets a chance to lead the “train.” Thank you for sharing. “Nordic Sounds” looks like a treasure trove of wonderful material as well.

I have wanted to learn one of these folk dances to teach my students for many years and now I have the resources to do so! I appreciate your lesson plans very much!
