I use the old pre-programed stand by "Go Tell Aunt Rhodie" and "3 Jolly Chaps" for elem. grades. The dumplings can learn, if they don't already know, the verses, and they are fun/silly. If you can work out the fretting yourself, songs like "I Had a Cat" and "Farmer in the Dell" are good for elem. H.S. needs something with a little more drama, like "McPhersons Lament" or some of the other Child Ballads with a little excitment.
