Stomp Like a Dino

Piko finds a giant three-toed footprint in the ferns and learns it's a fossil from long, long ago. A friendly dinosaur movement song for ages 2–5: stomp, stretch, tiptoe and roar softly.

Actions: Chorus: big slow stomps with hands curled up like tiny dinosaur arms; on ROAR, a big smiling roar, then a tiny whisper 'rawr'. Verse 1: point to the three big toes. Verse 2: stretch both arms up high like a long neck, then munch, munch. Bridge: tiptoe, curl up small like an egg, then pop up to hatch. Verse 3: hop like a little bird and wave hello.

Chorus

Stomp, stomp, stomp like a dino!
Stomp your feet, now nice and slow!
Dinosaurs lived long, long ago!
Stomp, stomp, stomp like a dino!
Stompa-stompa, stompa-stompa!
Stompa-stompa... ROAR!
Stompa-stompa, stompa-stompa!
Stompa-stompa... rawr.

Verse 1

Piko finds a footprint, look, look, look!
Three big toes, look, look, look!
Made in mud so long ago,
Now it's stone, a fossil, oh!

Verse 2

Tavi stretches tall, tall, tall!
Long-neck dinos, biggest of all!
Munch the leaves, a yummy lunch,
They ate plants! Crunch, crunch, crunch!

Chorus

Stomp, stomp, stomp like a dino!
Stomp your feet, now nice and slow!
Dinosaurs lived long, long ago!
Stomp, stomp, stomp like a dino!
Stompa-stompa, stompa-stompa!
Stompa-stompa... ROAR!
Stompa-stompa, stompa-stompa!
Stompa-stompa... rawr.

Bridge

Shh... tiptoe, tiptoe, soft and small,
Baby dinos weren't so tall.
Hatching out of eggs, crack, crack!
Tiny roar... then tiptoe back.

Verse 3

A little bird goes hop, hop, hop!
Tiny footprints, plip, plop, plop!
Birds are dino family, too!
Peep, peep! Stomp, stomp! How do you do!

Chorus

Stomp, stomp, stomp like a dino!
Stomp your feet, now nice and slow!
Dinosaurs lived long, long ago!
Stomp, stomp, stomp like a dino!
Stompa-stompa, stompa-stompa!
Stompa-stompa... ROAR!
Stompa-stompa, stompa-stompa!
Stompa-stompa... rawr.

Outro

Stompa-stompa... tiny rawr!
