Tyrannosaurs Rex
tune: "Are You Sleeping?"
Mean and rude,
Mean and rude,
Short front legs,
With no one to play,
Don't mess with T-Rex
Don't mess with T-Rex
He'll eat you!
He'll eat you!

Dinosaur Dance
If you want to be a dinosaur, now's you're chance,
Cause everybody's doin' the dinosaur dance.
Just stomp your feet, move your arms around.
Stretch up, stretch up and now touch the ground.
And you're doin' the dinosaur dance, oh yeah!
You're doin' the dinosaur dance.
OOOOOOO AAAAAHHHH OOOOOOO AAAAAAHHHHH
OOOOOOO AAAAAHHHH OOOOOOO AAAAAAHHHHH
You're doin' the dinosaur dance, oh yeah.
You're doin' the dinosaur dance.
(Dance around and do appropriate movements to the rhythm of the
dinosaur chant. During the oooooo's and aaaahhhh's, stretch up to the
right and down to the left. Continue dancing until the end.)
Ten Dinosaurs(flannelboard)
(Start with one number higher than the number of children you have so
everyone will have a turn to remove a dinosaur.)
Ten(nine, eight, etc.) huge dinosaurs
Sleeping on a cave floor
Wake up and started to roar,
"There's no room, no more, no more,
No more room on this floor!"
They tossed and turned and pushed galore,
(Move dinosaurs around cave)
Till one poor dinosaur was shoved out the door.
(have a child remove a dinosaur)
(Continue down to 1 dinosaur)
Last verse:
One huge dinosaur
Sleeping all alone, on a cave floor,
Wake up and started to roar.
STOMP, STOMP, STOMP
The first big dinosaur went stomp, stomp, stomp
I said to the first dinosaur, "Stop, stop, stop!"
The second big dinosaur went run, run, run,
I said to the second dinosaur, "Fun, fun, fun!"
The third big dinosaur went thump, thump, thump.
I said to the third dinosaur, "Jump, jump, jump!"
The fourth big dinosaur went whack, whack, whack
I said to the fourth dinosaur, "You stay back!"
The fifth big dinosaur went creep, creep, creep.
I said to the fifth dinosaur, "Its time to sleep!"
Dinosaur Land
A wonderful addition to your science area. Display is based on the
book "Patrick's Dinosaur" by Carol & Donald Carrick.
Set up a dinosaur park on the floor using sand and rubber dinosaurs.
Children can help make a cave (a box covered with papier
mâché), trees (toilet paper rolls) and pools of water
(if you are brave enough).
Dinosaur Garden
Display is based on the book Dinosaur Garden by Liza Donnelly.
To make a terrarium: plant seeds in an aquarium; add rocks, miniature
dinosaurs and a pool (using a small tin foil plate); cover the top
with plastic; and watch a prehistoric jungle grow.
Dino Memory
Make a dinosaur memory game from dinosaur stickers put on juice can lids.
Dino Stompers
Purchase inexpensive oversized rubber boots. Spray the boots green
and let the paint dry. Add red paint or stickers for toe nails.
