I Like Dinosaurs
(To the tune “Now you’ve made a pattern”/
Bobby Shaftoe)
I like roaring very loud
I like roaring very loud
I like roaring very loud
I’m a Tyrannosaurus
I like flying in the sky
I’m a Pterodactyl
I like swimming in the sea
I’m an Elasmosaurus
I have 3 horns on my head
I’m a Triceratops
I’ve got spikes all down my back
I’m Stegosaurus
My neck reaches up to trees
I’m a Brachiosaurus
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs
Lived for more than a hundred million years
And then they disappeared
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs
In the age of the reptiles when they lived
Let’s find out what they did
Millions of years ago
Upon the Earth a fossil show
Many different creatures great and small
Some were fierce and some were mean
Some ate ferns and some ate meat
They’re the strangest creatures of them all
Where they roamed and when they died
Their bones in rock were fossilized
And in the rock is where we find a clue
Bits of bone from long ago can tell us what we
want to know
About the strangest creatures of them all
Five Hungry Pterosaurs
Five hungry pterosaurs flying o’er the sea
One flew down to catch a fish for tea
He flew so fast and found he couldn’t stop
Now he’s in the water
Splash, plop
5, 4, 3, 2, 1
One Dinosaur came out to play
One dinosaur came out to play
Upon a spider’s web one day
She thought it such enormous fun
That she called for another dinosaur to come.
1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
10 dinosaurs came out to play
Upon a spider’s web one day
All of sudden that web broke
And down fell all the dinosaur folk
A Dinosaur came to visit you
(to the tune of The animals came in two by
two)
A dinosaur came to visit you
He roared, he roared
A dinosaur came to visit you
He roared, he roared
A dinosaur came to visit you
His claws were sharp and his teeth were too
You could hear him roaring
Did he frighten you?
NO!
Dinosaur Stomp
Look out, they’re coming
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs, can you hear their
fiercest roars?
Stomp, stomp, stomp, stomp
They’re coming from the muddy swamp
Come on everyone, let’s roar
Stamping feet, stamping feet
Tyrannosaurus is looking for meat
He’s very tall with great big jaws
Little hands but sharp, sharp claws
Stretching tall, stretching tall
Brachiosaurus was never small
Her long neck reached the highest plants
And she weighed more than 14 elephants
Flapping wings, flapping wings
Pterodactyls were such funny things
With little hands and little feet
And a great big beak to catch fish to eat
Ready to charge, ready to charge
Triceratops is looking rather large
With horns on his head and horns
on his snout
He might just catch you so watch
out
All Around the Swamp
(to the tune of “The wheels on the bus”)
The Pteranodon's wings went flap, flap, flap,
Flap, flap, flap, flap, flap, flap,
The Pteranodon's wings went flap, flap, flap,
All around the swamp.
The Tyrannosaurus Rex went grr, grr, grr,
The Tyrannosaurus Rex went grr, grr, grr,
The brontosaurus went munch, munch, munch.
The stegosaurs' tail went spike, spike, spike.
The dinosurs went zzz, zzz, zzz,
All around the swamp.
Shhhhhhhh.
Going on a Dinosaur Hunt
(chant back each line after you say it)
Going on a dinosaur hunt.
And I'm not afraid.
There's a tall mountain.
Can't go under it.
Can't go around it.
Guess I'll go over it.
Going on a dinosaur hunt.
And I'm not afraid.
There's a river.
Can't go over it.
Can't go under it.
Guess I'll swim across it.
Going on a dinosaur hunt.
And I'm not afraid.
There's some tall grass.
Can't go over it.
Can't go around it.
Guess I'll go through it.
Going on a dinosaur hunt.
And I'm not afraid.
There's a cave!
Can't go over it.
Can't go under it.
Guess I'll go in it.
It's dark and spooky in here.
It's cold in here!
I feel some scales.
I feel some big teeth!
OHH! It's a Dinosaur!
(children say the following with you)
Run out of the cave,
Go through the grass,
Swim across the river,
Climb the mountain,
Run, hope,
Open the door,
Jump into bed.
I went on a dinosaur hunt,
And I wasn't afraid!
Dinosaurs
(to the tune of "Pussycat, Pussycat")
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs,
Where have you been?
I've only seen you
In books that you're in.
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs,
Why aren't you here?
I want to know what
Made you all diasappear!
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs,
How you would roam!
Forests and beaches
Were your private home.
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs,
How you could eat!
Dining on plant life
Or dining on meat.
Dinosaurs, dinosaurs,
Where did you go?
Once you were giants,
And how you did grow!
Dinosarus, dinosaurs,
What made you die?
So many guesses,
But no one's sure why.
The baby dinosaur
(tune:incy wincy spider)
The little baby dinosaur
Climbed up to the top
Of a volcano
That was ready to pop
Out came the lava
So very very hot
And the little baby dinosaur
Ran home without a stop!
Dino-Cokey
(to the tune of "The Hokey Cokey")
You put your claws in,
You take your claws out,
You put your claws in,
And you scratch 'em all about.
You do the dino cokey,
And you turn around.
That's what it's all about!
Additional Verses:
feet in, feet out
stomp them all about
teeth in,teeth out
chomp them all about
tail in,tail out, wag it all about
