Here are the rhymes and songs from today:

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

 

The Dino-Pokey [tune: "Hokey Pokey" ]
 

You put your claws in. You put your claws out.
You put your claws in and you scratch them all about.
You do the dino-pokey and you turn yourself around.
That's what it's all about.
 

You put your teeth in.... chomp them all about....
You put your feet in... stomp them all about...
You put your tail in.... wag it all about....

 

Dino Laid an Egg  [tune: "This Old Man"]

Di - no - saur, She laid one.
She laid one egg, then was done.

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

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

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

Di-no-saur, She laid four.
She laid four eggs, will there be more?   
Chorus

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

 

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.
