Trixie Triceratops – Dinosaur Music Video for Kids
I finally finished a new music video. This time it’s Trixie Triceratops from my album Dinosaur Songs. Me and my two boys had a blast recording this video with our pet dinosaur on a warm summer’s day. Enjoy!
LYRICS
Trixie Triceratops
doesn’t like pork chops
she is the vegetable eating kind
look at her running around
leaves and apples on her mind
and when she’s full she makes a sound
BURP!
and starts singing
RAAOW RAAOW RAAOW!
Trixie Triceratops
doesn’t like pork chops
she is the vegetable eating kind
look at her running around
leaves and apples on her mind
and when she’s full she makes a sound
(what is that sound?)
yeah, when she’s full she makes a sound
(a beautiful sound)
watch out now, she’s gonna make that sound
BURP!

Trixie Triceratops – Dinosaur Music Video for Kids / Preschool Children
Here is a new dinosaur music video I think you and your kids will enjoy. It’s for the song ‘Dino Blues’ off the album ‘Dinosaur Songs’. It is set in a doll’s house. One morning the owner wakes up to find that a long-necked brachiosaurus is in the house. The dinosaur makes himself at home… and he’s hungry.
Here is the new music video from ‘Dinosaur Songs’: Dino Blues – Dino Doll’s House Video.
Lundby Doll’s Houses
Here are some fun facts about the making of the video.
The doll’s house and the furniture used in ‘Dino Blues’ is from Lundby which is a Swedish company. The Lundby doll’s houses have been around since the 1940:s and I actually had a doll’s house similar to the one used in the video when I was a kid. I loved playing with it, but I often let my Masters of the Universe dolls invade the house. There were struggles between Skeletor and He-Man where they turned turned everything upside down it the perfect looking home. Perhaps that’s where I got the idea for this dino video.
The doll’s house model used in the video is called “Småland”, which is the name of the province where I live. The success story of Lundby is very much like my own story with ‘Dinosaur Songs’. The founders of Lundby made a doll’s house for their niece. The house got popular among friends of the family and they decided to make some more houses and perhaps turn doll’s house making into a business. That’s what happens when you let kids inspire you. 🙂
In 2014 I was on tour with my Dinosaur Live show and I didn’t have much time over for making videos. This years there are not so many live shows for kids so I plan to focus more on producing fun youtube videos for children.
I hope you will like this video. Please share and subscribe to my Youtube channel.
I’ve recorded a new dinosaur music video. This time it’s for ‘Dino Blues’, a song describing a strange day when I woke up and there was a dinosaur at my door. It was my first pet dinosaur and it wasn’t long before it began tearing up the house.
To shoot the video I borrowed a dollhouse from the seven-year-old girl of one of my friends. They were going away on vacation to Thailand so I had plenty of time to play around with the dinosaurs in the dollhouse. But I procrastinated too long and one day I got a text message saying they were on their way home and that the girl wanted her dollhouse back right away. I only had about two hours to scramble, set everything up and shoot the video. I was angry with myself because I had imagined taking a whole day filming and doing it right. But then, my other videos for kids have been done very much on the spur of the moment and they turned out all right.
Anyway, I got all the scenes I wanted, but afterwards I was dissapointed to see that one of the best scenes I shot never got filmed. It was a brachiousaurs munching on a Christmas tree, flipping it over, banging a door open to reveal the terrified owner of the house and then just pulling the Christmas tree out of the door. I must have hit pause when I was supposed to hit the record button (it’s the same button). Well, well. That’s how it goes when you are making kids music videos Daddy Donut style. Just grab the camera and go! I hope to get some time to edit the music video for ‘Dino Blues’ soon. It’s gonna be so much fun and I can’t wait to let you kids watch it.
