Actions Rhymes
Swing Your Dragon Tail
Turn around once and swing your dragon tail.
Turn around twice and flap your wings like sails.
Turn around three times, stomp your feet and roar.
Jump up high and then sit down on the floor.

Roar went the Dragon
Tune:Pop Goes the Weasel
In and out the castle gate,
the knight chased the dragon.
The knight thought it twas all in good fun,
“Roarrrrrr” went the dragon!

How Do you Feed a Dragon?
How do you feed a dragon
Who is tall, tall, tall? (reach up high)
When you’re just a little kid
Who is small, small, small. (crouch down)
If you could stand on your tiptoes, (tiptoes)
Even though you are little,
The dragon could bend down (bend down)
And meet you in the middle! (do this a few times going faster each time).

I’m a Little Dragon
Tune: I’m a Little Teapot
I’m a little dragon, strong and stout.
Here is my tail and here is my snout.
If you get me upset, you better watch out!
I’ll give you something to shout about!
