What?? A T-rex? Yikes, I think I'd rather have a stegosaurus.
I'm Bringing Home A Baby Dinosaur
from Wilma Flanagan's Geocities Website
(Wilma does not say where she gets her fingerplays, so I am crediting her.)
I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Won't my mommy fall right through the floor
I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Ouch!
He squished me!
Flat as a pancake!
I'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Won't my mommy hide behind the doorI'm bringing home a baby dinosaur
Tromp! Tromp! Tromp! Tromp!
What if you really could bring a dinosaur home?

Here they come! Dinosaurs!
Dino Ditty, Ditty Dum Ditty Do
sung to the tune of "Do wah Diddy Diddy"
(another of Wilma Flanagan's Dinosaur Fingerplays)
Here he comes just a stomping with his feet,
Singing " Dino ditty, ditty dum ditty do.
Searching all around for something good to eat,
Singing "Dino ditty, ditty dum ditty do"
He's huge (he's huge)
He's strong (he's strong)
He's huge, he's strong, won't be hungry very long.
Dino ditty, ditty dum ditty do....
Let's boogie!

Dinosaur vs. Bedtime by Bob Shea
OPL Link
...really act this one out, lots of roaring, attack the the dinosaur leaf blower, pretend slide (count the ladder steps up, giant slide, baby slide, middling slide), sing On Top of Spaghetti, sing Brush Your Teeth...
Rar, rar, rar.... (shrink down, down, down until SNORE...and bedtime wins)
