Dinosaur Songs and Rhymes:
Five Dinosaurs
http://www.canteach.ca/elementary/songspoems67.html
Tune: Five Little Ducks
One dinosaur went out to play,
On a bright and sunny day.
He had such enormous fun
That he called another dinosaur to come
2…3…4…
Five dinosaurs went out to play,
On a bright and sunny day.
Now that their playtime is done
Time for naps for everyone.
Dinosaurs All Around

Tune: If You Are Happy and You Know It
There are dinosaurs stomping, all around.
There are dinosaurs stomping, all around.
There are dinos all around, stomping on the ground.
There are dinosaurs stomping, all around.
There are dinosaurs
jumping all around.
There are dinosaurs
jumping all around.
There are dinos all around,
jumping on the ground.
There are dinosaurs
jumping all around.
There are dinosaurs
flying all around.
There are dinosaurs
flying all around.
There are dinos all around,
flying over the ground.
There are dinosaurs
flying all around.
I Want to Be a Great Big Dinosaur

Tune: I Want to Be a Oscar Meyer Hot Dog
Oh I want to be
a great big dinosaur,
That is what
I really want to be!
For if I were
a great big dinosaur,
Everyone would run away from me.
Ahhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
Dino Ditty
http://www.canteach.ca/elementary/songspoems67.html
Tune: Do Wah Ditty Ditty
Here he comes just a stomping with his feet,
Singing “Dino ditty, ditty dum ditty do”.
Searching all around 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,
won’t be hungry very long.
“Dino ditty,
ditty dum ditty do.”
“Dino ditty,
ditty dum ditty do.”

Elevator Song

Tune: Do Your Ears Hang Low
Oh, the city is great and the city is grand
There are lots of tall buildings
On a little piece of land
We live way up on the fifty-seventh floor
And this is what we do
When we go out the door!
Take the elevator up, take the elevator down (3 x)
Then we turn around!
