Hi, i found this on youtube, and i think its quite a nice piece to teach to student, he even share the music score on his website. I think it will be great if we share ideas on new pieces to teach to student other than the 3 pieces from ABRSM or method books. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LqWtWxDtqwk

Not bad.
Also look for Boris Berlin's "Monkeys in the Tree" and Kabalevsky's "Chastushka."

Both pieces are in Celebration Series Repertoire 4, published by Frederick Harris Music. Yep. What a fantastic book. It also has "The Rooster Crows" by Papp and "Changing Bars" by Szelenyi, and a bunch of really, really good pieces for teaching. You should also check out Sketch Music by forum member Nikolas Sideris. Lots of interesting music there.

Two of Anne Crosby's collections fit this level well - Freddie the Frog and In My Dreams.
Similar to the piece in the video is Yoshinao Nakada's "The Speedy Car" from his collection Japanese Festival. (Which has many other great pieces in it.)
There's a ton of standard literature for this level - Tansman, Gretchaninoff and Kabalevsky all have many attractive pieces in their various collections.
