New York Philharmonic Very Young People's Concert Symphonic Playdate - Great for K & 1
The New York Philharmonic has put online a concert about Make-Believe that would be great for K & 1. There is a narrator and it would give kids a chance to use their imagination. The second half of the video goes through the Carnival of the Animal by Camille Saint Saens and the students could move like each of the animals. There is quite a bit of talking for the first two minutes and thirty seconds...you might fast forward. :)
