Although it shares the same 2/4 time signature as No. 7, "March of the Grasshoppers," the "march" in this piece is marked by more stately quarter notes than that of No. 7. It likely depicts the footsteps of children imitating soldiers, rather than small grasshoppers. The appoggiaturas that occasionally appear in the right hand from the beginning also seem to convey the children's joyful demeanor.
