Flannel: How Do Dinosaurs Count to Ten? by Jane Yolen & Mark Teague

how do dinosaurs count to ten cover image

Dinosaur counting starts with one. One tattered teddy bear just for fun.
Two big balloons tied to the bed,
Three toy trucks painted blue, green, and red.
Four balls that bounce,
Five big letter blocks,
And under the bed, six dirty socks.
A track, an engine, and seven cars.
An easel with eight full paint jars.
Nine pictures hanging on the wall.
Ten books to read– and that is all.
Now that we’ve counted from 1-10, how do we count again? (Count to 1-10).

Song:  “Dinosaurs All Through the Land” (Tune: “The Wheels on the Bus”)
The Tyrannosaurus Rex goes roar, roar, roar
Roar roar roar,
Roar roar roar,
The Tyrannosaurus Rex goes roar, roar, roar…
All through the land.

Additional verses:
The Triceratops’ horns go poke poke poke…
The Stegosaurus tail goes spike, spike, spike…
The Velociraptors’ claws goes swipe, swipe, swipe…
The Pteranodon’s wings go flap flap flap…
