Dinosaur Songs and Rhymes
The Prehistoric Animal Brigade Listen to the chorus of the brontosaurus and the stegosaurus down by the swamp. Along comes a dinosaur, making such a loud roar, thumping with his feet and going stomp, stomp, stomp. Pterodactlyl flapping, long beak clacking, big teeth snapping, down from a tree. Here's a wooly mammoth, tusks all curly, joins the hurly burly. Oh dear me, what a noise! It's the boys of the prehistoric animal brigade

Some liked water (gesture swimming). Some liked land (gesture walking by alternating palms on your knees). Pteranadons had leathery wings (gesture flying). Brontausaurs, long necks (gesture to neck).

5 Dinosaurs driving in their cars (drive your car) Having a really good time! They said "step on the gas (step on your gas!) We'll go really fast" and they did! Until, kerchunk, kerchunk, kerchunk. (On each kerchunk, sink lower and lower until you are crouched on the ground) One had a flat tire! And he said "You go on without me!" (Cup hands over mouth) So there were, 4 dinosaurs, driving in their cars etc. etc. until 1 dinosaur driving in his car Having a really good time. He said "step on the gas, I'll go really fast!" And he did! Until kerchunk, kerchunk, kerchunk. He had a flat tire! *spoken* Now this was a smart dinosaur. He jacked up his car (jack up your car! Crank crank crank) Took off the flat tire (take off that heavy tire!) Took out his spare tire (take out that heavy spare!) Jacked it back down (crank crank crank) Then he drove around and picked up all his friends And then there were... 5 dinosaur driving in their car Having a really good time.

Dinosaurs by Nancy Klien Spread your arms, way out wide, Fly like a Pteranodon, soar and glide. Bend to the floor, head down low, Move like Stegosaurus, long ago. Reach up tall, try to be As tall as Apatosaurus eating on a tree. Using your claws, grumble and growl Just like Tyrannosaurus on the prowl
Five enormous dinosaurs Five enormous dinosaurs Letting out a roar-- One went away, and Then there were four. Four enormous dinosaurs Crashing down a tree-- One went away, and Then there were three. Three enormous dinosaurs Eating tiger stew-- One went away, and Then there were two. Two enormous dinosaurs Trying to run-- One ran away, and then there was one. One enormous dinosaur, Afraid to be a hero-- He went away, and Then there was zero.
