caper

'dance playfully' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'batman and robin initially' is the wordplay.
'batman' becomes 'cape' (I can't justify this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'initially' says to take the initial letters.
The initial letter of 'robin' is 'r'.
'cape'+'r'='CAPER'

'with something for' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for caper that I've seen before include "Frolic, prank" , "Pickled bud - escapade" , "Lark" , "Frolic - plant with edible buds" , "game" .)
