Daegan and Gareth have discovered a show with great animal and nature related songs: Big Green Rabbit. The boys have been singing The Dinosaur Song and The Archaeopteryx song a LOT lately—you can find both songs on youtube. Here’s Daegan’s version of The Archaeopteryx Song:

And the lyrics:

Archaeopteryx, a bird-like flying dinosaur
Archaeopteryx, with a mouth full of teeth
Archaeopteryx, a long bony tail and then
Two feathered wings with three claws on each.

Archaeopteryx, from the Jurassic period
Archaeopteryx, been found fossilized
Archaeopteryx, from the maniraptor group
Archaeopteryx, just about crow-sized.

Run and hop, flap those wings
No one knows if it could fly
Run and hop, flap those wings
But they’ll never get up to the sky.

Archaeopteryx, a bird-like flying dinosaur
Archaeopteryx, with a mouth full of teeth
Archaeopteryx, a long bony tail and then
Two feathered wings with three claws on each.

And here’s Gareth’s somewhat jumbled version, cuz ya can’t put just one kid on youtube in the interests of preventing sibling rivalry!:
