Dinosaur Action Rhyme
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.


All around the swamp (tune of the Wheels on the Bus)
Pteranodon’s wings went flap, flap, flap
Flap, flap, flap,
Flap, flap, flap,
Pteranodon’s wings went flap, flap, flap
All around the swamp.

Triceratop’s horns went poke, poke, poke…
Apatosaurus’ mouth went munch, munch, munch…

Dinosaur Dinosaur
Dinosaur Dinosaur turn around
Dinosaur Dinosaur touch the ground
Dinosaur Dinosaur reach up high
Dinosaur Dinosaur wink one eye
Dinosaur Dinosaur touch your nose
Dinosaur Dinosaur touch your toes
Dinosaur Dinosaur ROAR ROAR ROAR
Dinosaur Dinosaur sit on the floor!
