A set of dances for toys and playthings which come to life, with costumes and decor based on eighteenth- and nineteenth-century wooden toys, and American playthings from the early part of the twentieth century. In 1975, Balanchine choreographed the Marche, Berceuse, Duo, and Galop (nos. 6, 3, 11, 12) from Jeux d’Enfants as a pas de deux, The Steadfast Tin Soldier, for the New York City Ballet, retaining the woman’s variation from the 1955 work.
