Celebrate Friday by learning the names of different types of dinosaurs through a fun and engaging action song! Singing songs benefits children in many ways for example; it teaches children the basics to forming a sentence by stringing words together. So, let’s begin. 

Process 

It would be helpful to add visuals of the 5 types of dinosaurs mentioned in the song. You could use toy dinosaurs or pictures from Google. The 5 types of dinosaurs in the song are;
