Dinosaur Song (Tune: Wheels on the Bus)

Great big teeth, great big teeth,
The tyrannosaurus rex had great big teeth,
When the dinosaurs roamed.
Additional verses:
The apatosaurus had a very long tail…
The triceratops had three big horns…
The stegosaurus had spikes on his tail…


Fingerplay Five Little Turkeys
View full image5 little turkeys by the barn door (hold up open hand)
1 saw some corn and then there were 4 (fold down one finger)
4 little turkeys flew up a tree (fly 4 fingers into the air)
1 fell down and then there were 3 (one finger falls to the ground)
3 little turkeys gobbled as they do (hold up 3 fingers)
A dog chased 1 and then there were 2 (left hand chases 1 finger on right hand)
2 little turkeys strutting in the sun (hold up 2 fingers)
The wind came along and then there was 1 (make wind movement with left hand)
1 little turkey began to run (1 finger runs)
For he saw the farmer and now there are none.
(left hand grabs right hand)

Fingerplay: I HAD A LITTLE TURTLE

I had a little turtle.                                                              Make a fist with thumb sticking out
He lived in a box                                                                                 Cup hand to form box
He swam in a puddle,                                                         Make swimming motions
He climbed on the rocks.                                                  Make climbing motions
He snapped at a mosquito; he snapped at a flea,                          Snap fingers
He snapped at a minnow; he snapped at me.
He caught the mosquito; he caught the flea.                  Make catching motions with hands
He caught the minnow, but he didn’t catch me!                           Shake finger and head ‘ no, no’
