Help a brother (literally, my actual brother) out?

So I have two tiny nieces and one somewhat less tiny nephew, and because I am doing my part to bring them up right, they LOVE VIDS. Specifically they really, really love Charmax's Mr. Blue Sky WALL-E vid and [livejournal.com profile] gwyn_r's Hold on Tight Rataouille vid and [personal profile] kuwdora's Love Letter Lilo & Stitch vid.

And those are all AWESOME, FANTASTIC VIDS that I and the other adults in their lives have now seen WAY TOO MANY TIMES. So now we need help, internets. Please, please rec more vids for the six-and-under set.

They get pretty bored by anything that doesn't come from a source they're familiar with, or doesn't at least look like a source they're familiar with--they were reasonably receptive to watching YouTube clips of Fantasia the last time I got tired of replaying the same few vids over and over. (Sadly they were not so into the awesome Gene Kelly vid, although I think I could have Stockholmed them into it if the family reunion had lasted another day or two.)

OTOH, they are young enough that the scary parts of Fantasia are too scary for them, so, for instance, the recent very cool vid by ... somebody ... to Tragic Kingdom, with all the scary/depressing parts of Disney Movies, would not help. They were somewhat upset even by the alligators being sinister in the direction of the hippos.

Please? Internets? Save my brother's sanity and give him some new vids for the next generation of fans to watch? :D

Okay, this isn't quite what you asked for (it's not a fanvid), but it was in a list of vids that [personal profile] thefourthvine's kid loved, so I thought it might be suitable. Plus, it's totally charming:

Obsessed by Trucks, a song by Justin Roberts [YouTube].

The only other things I could come up with are, um, sliiiiightly dubious. However, I offer them for your judgement:

[personal profile] jarrow's Give It Up (a montage of people dancing in John Hughes movies)

[personal profile] talitha78's White & Nerdy (Psych, Gus) (it's just really funny)

[personal profile] noxika also did a great Psych vid to Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" which is silly and I think would make kids laugh. She seems to have mostly deleted her journal, but I've got a copy, if you want to see it. (It turns out many people have vidded Psych to "Just Dance," but a cursory skim through the YouTube offerings suggest that Nox's was the best.)

Other than that, I second the Dug vid.
