Folk-dances and singing games is a 1909 collection edited by Elizabeth Burchenal and arranged by Emma Howells Burchenal, published in New York and Boston, gathering twenty-six folk dances from Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Russia, Bohemia, Hungary, Italy, England, Scotland and Ireland for teachers and children. The photographs show groups of girls in white pinafore-style dresses, dark stockings and hair bows dancing in pairs and lines on a rooftop floor, with hand-holding and turning poses a designer could use for movement, rhythm or vintage Edwardian childhood scenes.
