Rhyme: “Dinosaur, Dinosaur”
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, turn around.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, jump up and down.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, reach up high.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, wink one eye.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, point at your nose.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, touch your toes.
First ending:
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, tap your chin.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, do it again!
Repeat, ending with this couplet instead:
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, pat your knees.
Dinosaur, Dinosaur, sit down please!

Flannel Song: “5 Dinosaurs”
One dinosaur went out to play,
On a giant fern one day.
She had such enormous fun,
That she called another dinosaur to come.
(call very loudly) OH, DINOSAUR!
(pat hands on laps like a dinosaur is running)
Repeat until all 5 dinosaurs are playing, then end with:
They had such enormous fun,
They played until the day was done!
