Five Little Dragons

One little dragon with scales of blue
Ran to meet the green one
And then there were two
Two little dragons sitting under at ree
The red dragon joined them
And then there were three
Three little dragons wishing there were more
Along came the purple dragon
And then there were four
Four little dragons, happy to be alive
Found an orange dragon
And then there were five
Five little dragons all out to play
“Watch out, they breathe fire” is all I have to say

Colorful Dragons

Red dragon, green dragon, yellow dragon, blue
Orange dragon, brown dragon, purple dragon too

How many dragons do you see?
Count them now along with me
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7!

Roar Went the Dragon (tune: Pop Goes the Weasel)

In and out the castle gate, the knight chased the dragon
The knight thought it was all in good fun
“Rooooarrr” went the dragon

Fly, Fly Dragon (tune: Skip to My Lou)

Fly, fly dragon
Fly up high
Fly, fly dragon
Fly up high
Fly, fly dragon
Fly up high
Fly way up in the sky

Hop, hop dragon
Up and down
Hop, hop dragon
Up and down
Hop, hop dragon
Up and down
Hop way up high

Turn, turn dragon
Turn around
Turn, turn dragon
Turn around
Turn, turn dragon
Turn around
Sit, dragon, sit down

How it Went: Besides the fact that I had 2 children who insisted all the books and the flannel board were about dinosaurs it was a lot of fun! The dragon flannel board was a little too popular and it was difficult to get them to settle down after it, they all kept roaring and running up to the board.
