Dinosaur Preschool Songs

Dinosaurs: a commonly loved topic among most preschoolers! Following are some preschool songs to include into a dinosaur theme:


Song #1 Do You Know?

(To the tune of Do You Know the Muffin Man)

Oh, do you know the stegosaurus?

The stegosaurus, the stegosaurus?

Oh, do you know the stegosaurus?

He had plates upon his back.

Add.....Verses

Apatosaurus......he has a very long neck.

Tyrannosaurus rex......he was very fierce.

Triceratops....he has three big horns.


Song#2 We Were Dinosaurs

(To the tune of Twinkle Twinkle Little Star)

We were dinosaurs from long ago,
You could find us high and low

In the grass, and on the sand
In the water and on the land

We were dinosaurs from long ago,
You could find us high and low.



Song #3 The Dino Pokey

(To the tune of Hokey Pokey)

A great way to sing this song at a circle time is to provide each child with a dinosaur stick and for everyone to stand up!


You put the dino up, you put your dino down,
You put your dino up and you shake him all around
You do the dino pokey and you turn yourself around
Two stomps on the ground!

You put your dino in the front, you put your dino in the back
You put your dino in the front, and you give your knee a whack
You do the dino pokey and you turn yourself around
Two stomps on the ground!

You put your dino to your head, you put your dino to your toe
You put your dino to your head, and you wobble to and fro
You do the dino pokey and you turn yourself around
Two stomps on the ground!
