The Carnival of Animals: Sing, Dance, Play, Listen! is designed for primary school students, where participants, with the help of imagination and performers, will create an animal kingdom. Through active participation, they will assist Noah in gathering animals into the ark before the great flood, which inspired Saint-Saëns for this work. With an original song, they will learn the rules of concert etiquette, and then become active participants and creators of the workshop.

The first movement, "Royal March of the Lion," brings to life the king of animals through lyrics and singing, as participants, imitating lion roars, transform into a pride of lions, grasping the differences between instrumental and vocal-instrumental music. In the "Aviary" movement, they participate by imitating bird songs, and then, by actively listening, they search for the cuckoo at the end of the forest during the corresponding movement.

The keyboards in the "Fossils" movement become musical and working instruments, as participants, like paleontologists, discover fossils. In the Finale, through song and body music, they introduce all the remaining animals into the ark.
