Ten Little Dinosaurs by Diane Weiss
(tune: "Little Red Wagon")
One little, two little, three little dinosaurs,
Four little, five little, six little dinosaurs,
Seven little, eight little, nine little dinosaurs,
Ten dinosaurs came out to play.
(As you count out dinosaurs, lift one finger for each.)
Jumping up and down went ten little dinosaurs,
Jumping up and down went ten little dinosaurs,
Jumping up and down went ten little dinosaurs,
Making the earth go bump!
(Jump on the word "jump" and clap hands on the word "bump.")
Ten little, nine little, eight little dinosaurs,
Seven little, six little, five little dinosaurs,
Four little, three, little, two little dinosaurs,
One sad dinosaur left all alone.
(Put fingers down as song directs.)
