Great big dinosaurs, great big dinosaurs,
Lived so long ago
Some liked land and some liked water,
Some flew in the air.

Great big dinosaurs, great big dinosaurs,
Lived so long ago
Some had horns and some had spikes,
Some had wings like bats.

Great big dinosaurs, great big dinosaurs,
Lived so long ago
Some ate plants and some ate meat,
But now there are no more

Sung to: " 5 Little Ducks" 
One dinosaur went out to play
On a bright and sunny day
He had such ENORMOUS fun
That he called another dinosaur to come.
(Call very loud) DI-NO-SAUR!
(Then chant while patting hands on laps) Thump! Thump! Thump! Thump!
Then repeat for 2 dinosaurs, 3 dinosaurs, etc.
 Instead, they heard their mother (or father, grandma, etc)
 And she was calling "DINNER"
And they all went home for dinner!
 

Sung to: "Did You Ever See a Lassie?"

Sung to: "Little White Duck"
There is one dinosaur, crashing through the trees.
1 dinosaur, eating all he sees.
He takes a bite of the mountain top,
And along comes a friend with a crash, bang, plop.
Now there's 2 dinosaurs, crashing through the trees.
Crash, bash, smash.
(repeat for 2,3,4) counting up rhyme
 

 My name is stegosaurus;
I'm a funny-looking dinosaur.
For on my back are many boney
plates and on my back are many boney plates
And on my tail there's more.

My front two legs are very short.
My back two legs are long.
My body's big, my head is very small.
I'm put together wrong.

Sometimes another dinosaur comes by and wants to fight.
I don't use fists, I use my tail.
It has four sharp, sharp spikes.
 


Sung to: "Alouette"

7 big, 8 big, 9 big dinosaurs,
Ten big dinosaurs!
They all lived a long, long time ago.
They all lived a long, long time ago.
They all lived a long, long time ago.
Now there are no more.

I've got a Dinosaur in my Back Yard ©Kath Bee 2008 CHORUS I’ve got a dinosaur in my back yard I’ve got a dinosaur in my back yard I’ve blinked and blinked cos I thought they were extinct But he’s there as plain as day He’s got an large bony frill round his neck He’s got horns times three He doesn’t eat meat leaves and twigs are a treat What’s his name? Triceratops CHORUS He’s got a long stretchy neck So he can reach right up high He’s not a meat eater juicy plants are much sweeter What’s his name? Diplodocus BRIDGE It isn’t my imagination I’m not making it up Look and you will see That he’s looking straight at me Through my bedroom window…. CHORUS He’s the length of two buses Eight children can fit on his tail He’s as heavy as lead Eats from morning ‘til bed What’s his name? Apatosaurus BRIDGE CHORUS He’s got 60 sharp teeth if you please! Gobbles other dinosaurs up with ease The scariest beast! Last but not least What’s his name? Tyrannosaurus Rex! BRIDGE CHORUS to fade…………………..

It’s Never the Wrong Time to go out ©Kath Bee 2008 It’s never the wrong time to go out Even when there are rain clouds about Put on a coat, gumboots and a hat Feel the rain on your face as the drips go “splat” Jump in a puddle and splash all your friends Poke out your tongue and catch a drop on the end, cos It’s never the wrong time to go out Even when the wind blows about Walk in one direction and get pushed along Can’t walk in the other ‘cos the gusts are so strong Hair in all directions, trees bend and sway Have to yell instead of talk ‘cos no one can hear what you say, cos It’s never the wrong time to go out CHORUS Whether the weather is hot Or whether the weather is cold Or whether the weather is in between Or not what the forecast foretold It can’t be controlled……………. .so…………. It’s never the wrong time to go out Even if your mind’s full of doubt The sun’s shining brightly; don’t want to burn your skin So have a look around and find some shade to sit in Head to the river or the sea to get cool And if you live near neither, what about a swimming pool, cos It’s never the wrong time to go out CHORUS It’s never the wrong time to go out x3

description, content, interesting facts and much more about the movie

The town of Brightwood in Australia. Strange things are happening here. At night, residents see UFOs flying across the sky. There is a military base near the city, soldiers in chemical protection suits are busy with some kind of manipulations in the vicinity of the city. Some kind of mucus spreads on the plants in the forest.

At school, in a biology class, the teacher informs the children that they will have to carry out their own research project. You need to work in pairs. Jake Emory as a partner goes to Abi Tensi, she and her father settled in the city recently. Dr. Fred Tensi works for an environmental government agency.

Jake's older brother Mike keeps company with a guy who paints graffiti on the walls. When a policeman appears, a street artist runs away, leaving a friend alone. Police officer Alan Faraday apprehends Mike. He is unhappy that Alan is showing interest in their mother with Jake. Jennifer has been a widow for two years and is inclined to accept Alan's advances. Jennifer's husband died two years ago under unclear circumstances. Recently, the death rate in the town has increased dramatically. Alan brings Mike home, tells Jennifer that he is giving her eldest son a final warning. Jennifer scolds Mike, who responds with rudeness. Jennifer checks Jake's report card from school in the mail and compares it to the report card that her son personally handed to her some time ago. Jennifer guesses that Jake's friend Charles made the report card with inflated marks. As punishment for cheating on the weekend, she sentences Jake to house arrest.

At night Jake is called out of the house by his friends Charles, Max and Jimmy. They are going to the forest, where they spotted a UFO crash. Jake gets out of the house through the window and joins the company. Abby comes out to meet them. She also wants to go with them. The guys ride bicycles into the forest, then, by the light of flashlights, inspect the alleged UFO landing site. They discover a strange slime that glows in the dark. Ebi collects the substance in a jar: it can be useful for working on a project.

Jake returns home. His mother is waiting for him. She is angry. Abby visits Jake the next day. She brings a jar of slime and offers Jake a chemical analysis of it. Abi is called by her father, the girl leaves. Jake wants to do research, but Mike enters the room. He teases his younger brother, mixes mucus and reagents in a test tube, all this splashes on the table. Mike leaves. Jake slams his fist on the table in rage and knocks over his protein shake. Its contents are also poured onto the table and mixed with the puddle that is already there. The resulting substance sizzles and bubbles.

During the night, Jake wakes up to strange noises. He discovers in his room an unprecedented creature that was born from a randomly formed mixture. This is a cute little four-legged dinosaur that constantly changes color. Jake gives him the nickname Magnus (one of the chemicals used was magnesium). Jake lures the funny animal with candy.

In the morning, his mother demands that Jake go with her to the town meeting. Jake looks for Magnus and finds him in the bathroom. He secretly takes out a dinosaur from Mike, locks him in his room and goes with his mother.

An epidemiologist speaks at a meeting. He says that in the vicinity of the town there is a focus of a disease unknown to science. Colonel Roderick then reveals that the military will cooperate with the environmentalists. The fishermen say that they caught a strange creature in the river. The Colonel claims to have caught a catfish. The fishermen show their prey. The colonel's soldiers take the outlandish fish and take it with them for research.

Magnus, left alone in the house, is naughty and mischievous, then he gets out into the street. Returning with his mother, Jake catches the dinosaur, wraps it in a jacket and takes it back to his room.

After the meeting, Abi and her father catch up with the military car. Fred demands to give him a strange individual, since he is a representative of the government. The Colonel says he is the government here. He threatens Fred, implying that his daughter might get into trouble if Dr. Tensy interferes in what is not his business. Back in the car, Fred tells Abi to never turn off the GPS on her cell phone so he always knows where she is.

Magnus is constantly growing. Charles again calls Jake to the forest, but he refuses. Abi comes to him and offers to take on a project. Jake refuses, he does not want to let the girl in, but Abi insists. Jake takes Abi's word that she will not tell anyone about what she saw, and lets her into the room. There she sees Magnus. The girl is amazed: who is this? Jake reports that he accidentally spilled chemicals on the slime from the forest - and this creature turned out. Abi offers to report the amazing animal to her father, but Jake is vehemently against it. They would take Magnus away from him, they would conduct research on him. Abi is afraid: what if he is dangerous? Jake claims to be able to handle Magnus. He behaves like a puppy, and even performs the “sit” command. Abi finds Magnus very cute.

The street artist is busy with his work again. After completing the work, he throws out the spray can, from which the remnants of paint pour out, they fall on a puddle of mucus. After a while, a strange animal emerges from the mixture. But its existence does not last long. Soon the animal spreads. Late in the evening, Alan patrols the area of ​​the old warehouse. He informs the dispatcher about the damage: broken windows, graffiti on the walls. This can be classified as hooliganism. The military appears. Colonel Roderick says they'll take care of it themselves. The policeman is surprised, but the dispatcher confirms: an order has just been received not to interfere with the actions of the military. Alan is leaving. The colonel gives the order to turn off the headlights. In the dark, luminous traces become visible.

Fred Tensi surveys the forest. He finds the corpse of a strange creature near the lake. Fred puts it in a glass container and takes it with him. Then the ecologist discovers a lot of cans with some chemicals in the grass, they are labeled "biohazard".

Abi visits Jake. Before her eyes, Magnus begins to increase dramatically in size. The girl is sure that the dinosaur will soon grow so huge that there will be problems with it. A group of friends visit Jake. They see Magnus and they get terrified. Jake begs them to keep what they saw a secret. Obsessed with the idea of ​​​​searching for sensationalism for his video blog, Charles believes that this can be good money. Jake forbids him to film Magnus. Jake is accused of exchanging them for a girl. He says that Abi is not his girlfriend at all. Friends quarrel. Everyone leaves, including an offended Abi. At home, the girl discovers a container with a dead creature from her father. Abi asks what his father intends to do with him. Fred says he will be examined. What if the unknown animal turned out to be alive? Then scientists would begin to observe it.

Jake tries to hide a grown Magnus in the garage. Mike finds them there. The brothers are sure that the mother will not be happy with such a pet, she should not be shown it.

In the morning, Jennifer intends to take her sons to school by herself. Jake asks Mike to make sure Magnus is not left alone. On the way, Mike again begins to be rude to his mother, while calling her by name. Alan Faraday's girlfriend is not his mother. Jennifer becomes furious and she kicks both sons out of the car. Mike and Jake walk home.

Fred Tensi seeks a personal meeting with Colonel Roderick. He expresses his claims to him. The Colonel claims to be busy with secret exercises. As the environmentalist leaves, Roderick orders his subordinates to keep an eye on him. We need to find out what he knows.

Abi hears a noise from the neighbor's garage. She goes inside. Magnus starts to behave aggressively, from trying to break the gate. Ebi wants to calm down the dinosaur, which has already become quite large. But he does not obey her, with his crest he injures Abi's wrist. Mike and Jake enter the garage. The older brother tells the younger to calm his pet down while he goes into the house to get Abi's Band-Aid. Jake asks Abi for forgiveness, they reconcile. Alan meets Mike in the yard. He wonders why he is not at school. Abby comes out of the garage. She makes up a story as she goes along: she and Mike are preparing a surprise for Jennifer, who supposedly has a birthday today.

Charles, Max and Jimmy continue to chase the UFO. By chance, they witness a strange scene. At an abandoned railway station where old trains are rusting, combat drones, which they mistook for alien flying saucers, shoot strange creatures fleeing from them. The teenagers are shocked. The military is clearly hiding something terrible from the inhabitants of the city. Friends are fleeing.

Charles, Max and Jimmy run to Jake and tell him what happened. Magnus crashes through the garage door, where he gets cramped. Jake decides to save his pet by hiding it in an abandoned tunnel. Together with Abi, he leads the dinosaur there. In the train graveyard, Magnus is attacked by a drone. The dinosaur manages to break it. Abi and Jake leave Magnus in the tunnel after persuading him to hide in this hideout.

Alan and Jennifer finish a romantic dinner at a cafe. For dessert, Alan presents Jennifer with a birthday cake with candles. She says that her birthday is not today. At this time, Magnus rushes down the street, he is pursued by the military, they still tracked down the animal. A whole crowd of onlookers gathers. Magnus is surrounded. Jake is desperate: his pet is about to be killed. He breaks through to Magnus, tries to calm him down. But the colonel gives the order to remove the child from the line of fire. Magnus is shot at, he falls. The dinosaur's body is transported to the military unit. It is hung on chains from the ceiling of the hangar. The animal begins to show signs of life. The colonel gives the order to freeze a valuable sample.

Alan is driving everyone home. Jennifer takes her sons to the house, Alan accompanies Abi. It is discovered that her father has disappeared. The ecologist's office is in a terrible mess. Jake is devastated by the loss of his pet. His friends show up. Charles forged a pass that would allow him to enter the military base on Mike's photo pass. Charles offers to make a sortie, during which he will film everything that happens with a webcam and upload the video to the network. It will be a sensation. Alan decides to join the team in order to rescue Colonel Fred Tensi from the clutches (the location of Abi's father is known thanks to the GPS navigator). Alan brought a van, which he "borrowed" from the confiscated warehouse. It has biohazard signs on it. Younger teenagers hide in the back, Alan and Mike in hazmat suits get into the cab. At the checkpoint, sentries want to inspect the body of the van. Alan claims that the chemicals they allegedly brought are highly toxic. The van is allowed into the territory of the military unit.

Jimmy stays in the van to take care of the technical part of the operation. Charles puts on a helmet with a webcam on his head and gets on his bike. His job is to distract the guards. He succeeds. Abi and Alan go looking for Fred. The rest must find Magnus and rescue him. Charles reports live through his blog. Alan and Abi discover Fred's phone in the Colonel's desk drawer. There are also secret papers that can serve as evidence against the military, who are conducting experiments to create biological weapons. Abi's father is found in the interrogation room. He is released and taken to a van. Meanwhile, in the hangar, the guys see Magnus, he is cold and shows no signs of life. Hungry Max steals bags of dry rations from the warehouse. Jake comes up with the idea to raise Magnus's body temperature with these self-heating bags. They begin to implement the plan, but the colonel breaks into the hangar with his people. Roderick accuses the teens of breaking and entering as well as attempted theft. Jake says: Magnus is mine, I created him. The Colonel asks how. Jake lists all the chemical elements he has used. Roderick needs information, which served as a stabilizer. Protein cocktail? This means that a simple enzyme was necessary for the success of the experiment. Having received an answer to his question, the colonel gives the order to destroy Magnus. But the dinosaur has already warmed up, he comes to his senses and breaks the walls of the hangar. Charles takes it off. The military are trying to prevent an escape attempt, open fire. The colonel intends to arrest all civilians who illegally entered the territory of his unit. He claims that at the cost of the lives of 126 residents of Brightwood, he will be able to save many more people. No one will believe the evidence against him. However, Charles announces that his blog already has five million views.

Some time later, Colonel Roderick stands trial on charges of conspiracy to use biological weapons. Alan Faraday and Jenny Emory live together, Mike and Jake do not mind such a stepfather. Charles managed to earn five thousand two hundred dollars with the help of his blog. A cute little lizard flies up to the window of Jake's room. He looks like a shimmering dragon and clearly wants to play with Jake. Magnus? It looks like this nickname is familiar to him.

If you meet a dinosaur... | Papmambuk

This is not our first and, I'm afraid, not our last book about dinosaurs. In our apartment it is generally difficult to go from the room to the kitchen and not step on the lizard. We have already visited the Dinopark, where our main dinosaur lover moved exclusively with tightly closed eyes, sitting on his father’s shoulders, and spent most of his time in the sandbox: “Mom, look, I dug up the head of a tyrannosaurus rex!” We bought all the store-bought dinosaurs within a radius of 5 km from home, read all the home books about them and switched to the library ones . .. In general, this book appeared on time.

The information there is about the same as in other encyclopedias for children. What makes her stand out is her presentation. The first half of the book is something like a comic. This part is for the very youngest. There are short stories about dinosaurs, in a simple form and with funny pictures. There are also those where one dinosaur attacks another. Usually my child is very worried about the victim, but here everything went relatively smoothly.

– Mom, do they want to eat diplodocus?!

Sasha's eyes are terrified, and I'm already thinking about what size candy can save this cruel world. Carefully answer:

- They want to. You see, four of them attacked him, and he alone cannot defeat them.

“Poor thing,” Sasha says quietly. - Poor diplodocus.

But at the bottom of the page there are funny rats joking and lightening the mood, and now my daughter's attention has switched to them.

Phew! I breathed. And then after Dinopark we discussed the exhibit for a month, where huge prehistoric rats devoured the head of a diplodocus (diplodocus is unlucky, yes). This picture was accompanied by a loud squeak, from which I wanted to itch and run anywhere, just to get away from this place. Sasha looked at the remains of the unfortunate dinosaur for a long time, and then tortured us: who killed him, why the rats eat him and whether he can escape (it is doubtful, because only his head remained from him).

It is in this part of the book that the Tyrannosaurus rex is drawn, which growls: “I want meat, a lot of meat!” And on different pages he says the same thing. Sasha takes this as a game and rejoices if the T-Rex is left without dinner.

But the comic ended, questions began (not yet from Sasha, but on the pages of the book). The child is listening. Silently. Agree, it's worth it.

I turn the page. Ahead is a serious, encyclopedic part. I guess at three and a half years it's still too early. But Sasha has her own plans.

Looking at the Tyrannosaurus Rex.

– Mom, he has holes in his head! Sasha is surprised.

Next to the picture is a tooth and it is written that it is the size of a human palm. We find out whose palm is meant: Sasha or mother's, or maybe even father's?

- Wow, what a big tooth! - exclaims Sasha, measuring the palms of all family members.

We reach the Oviraptor. This rogue is known for stealing the eggs of other dinosaurs.

“Ah-ah-ah, oviraptor,” Sasha shakes his head. - That's not a good thing to do. What will he do with the eggs, mother?

I really don't want to answer, but I honestly say that I will eat it. Sasha looks at the dinosaur accusingly and turns the page. And there ... ankylosaurus.

“Come on, mom, you will be a sharptooth (that's what we sometimes call a tyrannosaurus rex), and I will be an armored dinosaur,” says Sanya. - You growl: "I want meat!" and attack me.

I growl. I'm thinking about how I'm going to attack, and then...

– Ahhh! - from the militant expression on the face of my daughter, I feel a little scared. - It's my tail! Get it, vicious sharptooth!

Luckily, the tail was imaginary, otherwise it would be bad for me as a sharptooth. For those who are only familiar with the ancient lizards, I explain: the ankylosaurus, also known as an armored dinosaur, was meek, but hit back the tyrannosaurus with its powerful tail with a bone club at the end.

Is it necessary to say that this book has become a table book in our family? The next time we got to the zoo, Sanya was intently examining crocodiles and lizards. After all, they have been living on earth for so long. Have you ever met a real dinosaur?

– Can we see a real dinosaur? Sasha asks with hope and concern.

- No, we can't. Remember we read that they all died out?

“It's a pity,” Sanya sighs with relief. “But let’s take a bigger shovel outside.”

– Why? I'm interested.
