Dino Rap for Kids | Rap along with us and learn about dinosaurs!

It's one thing to read about dinosaurs, but why not sing about them? Learn some quick facts about dinosaur history while you rap the words with us! Here are the lyrics so you can follow along:

The Mesozoic Era was millions of years ago
With varieties of reptiles calling the earth home.
Triassic, Jurassic, and Cretaceous—
Three geological times will convey this.

What's a species that can run, fly, and be scaly,
Jump and even roar and do these things daily?
Some are long, short, but all start as babies.
There are some dino dudes and some dino ladies.
Let's take it back to a land before time,
Where reptiles were big, small, or medium-sized.
They loved to roll in packs or even fly.
Some were so majestic, but some would horrify.

Brontosauruses were long from head to tail.
Ankylosauruses were spiny, short, with hard shells.
Velociraptors ran at these speeds or more.
Iguanadons walked on two legs or four.
Some had sharp teeth for tearing meat;
Some ground their food with wide flat teeth.
Brachiosauruses were tall and ate their lunch up high.
Microraptors looked low for their food supply.

We wanted to name a few, so we made a list . . .
. . . And it goes like this:
Aptosaurus
Diplodocus
Iguanodon
Lambeosaurus
Velociraptor
Stegosaurus
Microraptor
Tyrannosaurus Rex

Their large bodies needed a lot of food.
There are three major types that we will include.
Stegosauruses liked their meals to be green.
As herbivores, they loved to munch on leaves.
The omnivores were not picky at all.
Fruit, seeds, and animals that were small.
The Tyrannosaurus rex, which was the most vicious—
They're carnivorous, meaning animals were delicious.

Dinosaur babies were hatched from eggs.
Hatchlings had wings and some had legs.
Dinosaur families found safety in numbers
Whether they were awake or as they slumbered.
They traveled in packs or even roamed alone.
That's what the unearthing of fossils and what bones have shown.
These ancient lizards are a thing of the past.
A special kind of scientist was able to trace their paths.

A paleontologist studies the fossils and bones
To determine if their feet had claws or toes.
Robert Plot found the first dino bone.
He thought it was from a human and he hadn't known.
It's interesting to study these reptile giants.
It's important to our history and also to science.
These creatures were incredibly unique.
Their habitat was destroyed, and now they're extinct.
