Welcome To Storytime! [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]

Welcome, welcome everyone,
Now we're here, let's have some fun.
First we'll sing the ABC's,
then we'll read and sing with me.
Welcome, welcome, everyone,
Now we're here let's have some fun.

 

I Like Dinosaurs [tune: Twinkle, Twinkle]

I like dinosaurs so much,
I wish they still lived with us.
Some were big and some were small,
some were fierce, but not them all.
I like dinosaurs so much,
I wish they still lived with us.

Dino Eggs  [Tune: This Old Man ]

Di-no-saur, She laid one.
She laid one egg, Then was Done.


Di-no-saur, She laid two.
She laid two eggs, that were blue.

Di-no-saur, She laid three.
She laid three eggs, by a tree.

Di-no-saur, She laid four.
She laid four eggs, not one more.

Di-no-saur, She laid Five,
She laid five that hatched ALIVE!

Chorus:
Oh - oh, dino eggs,
She lays them     one by one.
She lays eggs     until she's done.

 

Dino Ditty

Here he comes just a stomping with his feet.
Sing Dino, ditty, ditty-dum, ditty do
Searching all around for something to eat.
Singing dino, ditty, ditty, dum ditty do

He's huge [echo]. He's strong [echo]
He's huge, he's strong.
Won't be hungry for very long
Dino ditty, ditty dum, ditty do
Yeah, Dino ditty, ditty dum, ditty do.

 

The More We Read Together [Tune: The More We Get Together]

The more we read together, together, together,
The more we read together, the better it is!
'Cause reading and singing and talking together,
Is how you learn the six skills for reading by six.
