Midnight in a Toy Shop

A six legged spider is out in the snow and to get warm, goes through the keyhole of a toyshop. It's late so only the toys are there. It isn't long before many of the them begin (you guessed it) dancing. About ninety percent of these features have the characters dancing. There were a handful of nicely drawn things, but ultimately it was back to more prancing around. is it because unpredictable movements were much harder to animate. It would be fun to read some of the literature on these early cartoonists.
