This Is How Dinos Walk
This Is How Dinos Walk (in Spanish: Así caminan los Dinos) is a Dony and the Dinos song for kids ages 0 to 4. Every dino moves differently: Dony forward, Totopo backwards, Rommy on tiptoe, Carlos super fast, Brayan super slow, Peter up and Mossy down. At the end, a calm breath and a rest.
