During part of the past few music classes, the kindergarten kids have been watching and interacting with Little Einsteins Rocket's Firebird Rescue.
This features the Firebird Suite by Igor Stravinsky (my favorite composer).

I love that Little Einsteins adventures teach about art and music and give the viewers lots of opportunities to move and interact.
I've been having the kids reflect on what they've learned, and the responses have been really great:
"We learned not to give up!" "We learned that music can give us clues of who is coming or what is going to happen." "We learned about crescendo and diminuendo."
Here are a couple photos of a class interacting with the video:
