Long, Long Ago

Long, long ago - when the earth was young,
Dinosaurs live here right under the sun.
Some were big and some were small.
Some were fat and some were tall.
Some could swim, some could fly.
Some could stretch up, very high.
Don't you wish they still roamed free
And lived somewhere that you could see?

Stomp Around

(to the tune of: "Row, Row, Row Your Boat")

Stomp, stomp, stomp around,
On your great big feet.
Swish your tail,
Turn around,
Now go and take your seat!

Where, Oh Where, Did the Dinosaurs Go?

(to the tune of: "Where, Oh Where, Has My Little Dog Gone?")

Where, oh where, did the dinosaurs go?
Where, oh where, can they be?
They used to roam all around the swamp
But now they're gone, can't you see?

Where, oh where, did the dinosaurs go?
Why aren't they here anymore?
Volcano ash or a meteor crash,
Well, nobody knows how for sure.

Once There Was a Dinosaur

(to the tune of: "Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star")

Once there was a dinosaur
And all he did was roar and roar.
He roared high and he roared low,
He roared fast and he roared slow.
Once there was a dinosaur
And all he did was roar and roar.

Five Hungry Dinosaurs

Five hungry dinosaurs wading through a swamp.
The first one said, "I like to stomp."
The second one said, "My stomach is growling."
The third one said, "It's time to go prowling."
The fourth one said, "Let's look for some food."
The fifth one said, "I'm in the mood."
Five hungry dinosaurs wading through a swamp.
They are very hungry. Chomp! Chomp! Chomp!

Hey There, Mister Dino

(to the tune of: "If You're Happy and You Know It")

"Hey there, Mister Dino, how are you?"
"Hey there, Mister Dino, how are you?"
You lived many years before
All the cars and homes and stores.
"I'm just wondering, Mister Dino, how are you?"

"Hey there, Mister Dino, how are you?"
"Hey there, Mister Dino, how are you?"
You're much taller than the trees
And you're much taller than me,
"So, hey, Mister Dino - how do you do?"

Dinosaur Friends

(to the tune of: "Twinkle, Twinkle Little Star")

Dinosaurs lived long ago,
Some ran fast and some moved slow.
Some ate plants and some ate meat.
Some were mean and some were sweet.
I'm glad I didn't live then
I wouldn't want dinosaur friends!

Dinosaur Egg

Inside her egg shell, white and round,
Baby dino is safe and sound.
But she wants to come out into the light,
So she pushes and shoves with all her might.
Her shell soon cracks and creaks and pops,
One big jump and out she pops!

Dinosaur Bedtime

Sleepy time for dinosaurs, time to have a rest.
Wag your tails, scratch your scales, curl up in your nest.
Dream about adventures that you liked the very best.
Sleepy time for dinosaurs, time to have a rest.

The Little Baby Dinosaur

(to the tune of: "The Itsy Bitsy 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!

Going on a Dinosaur Hunt

(kids 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!
(kids 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!

Dino Ditty

(to the tune of "Do Wah Ditty")

Here he comes just a stomping with his feet singing,
"Dino ditty, ditty dum, ditty do."
Searching all round for something good to eat singing,
"Dino ditty, ditty dum ditty do."
He's huge, (He's huge), He's strong, (He's strong.)
He's huge, he's strong, he won't be hungry very long.
"Dino ditty, ditty dum , ditty do."
"Dino ditty, ditty dum , ditty do."
"Dino ditty, ditty dum , ditty do."
"Dino ditty, ditty dum , ditty do."

I'm Bringing Home a Baby Dinosaur

(to the tune of "Baby Bumble Bee")

I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur,
Won't my mommy fall right through the floor,
I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur,
Tromp! Tromp! Tromp! ROAR!

I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur,
Won't my mommy say "Oh pleace, no more!"
I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Stomp! Stomp! Stomp! ROAR!

I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur,
Won't my mommy hide behind the door
I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Ouch! Oh no! I'm squashed!

Dino-Pokey

(to the tune of "The Hokey Pokey")

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 pokey,
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your feet in,
You take your feet out,
You put your feet in,
And you stomp 'em all about
You do the dino pokey,
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your teeth in,
You take your teeth out,
You put your teeth in,
And you chomp 'em all about
You do the dino pokey,
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

You put your tail in,
You take your tail out,
You put your tail in,
And you wag it all about
You do the dino pokey,
And you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about!

Five Enormous Dinosaurs

Five enormous dinosaurs,
Letting out a roar,
One went away,
And then there were four.

Four enormous dinosaurs,
Munching on a tree,
One went away,
And then there were three.

Three enormous dinosaurs,
Didn't know what to do,
One went away,
And then there were two.

Two enormous dinosaurs,
Having lots of fun,
One went away,
And then there was one.

One enormous dinosaur,
Afraid to be a hero,
He went away,
And then there was zero.

The Dinosaur Zoo

Allosaurus, Stegosaurus, Brontosaurus too,
All went out for dinner at the Dinosaur Zoo.
Along came the waiter called Tyrannosaurus Rex
And he gobbled up the table 'cos they wouldn't pay their checks.

A long, long time ago.

Tyrannosaurus Rex was king
A long, long time ago.
