FurReal Squawkers Macaw

• 6

  Wave your hand over the bird's head to make the parrot blink its eyes. Rub its back to prompt movements and a cooing sound, and pet its beak for a kiss or noise.

• 7

  Move the switch on the bird to "custom speech." Speak directly to the bird to have it repeat what you say with responses up to three seconds. Place the switch in "parrot talk mode" and the bird will respond to questions. Set to "mix mode" for both programmed responses and a repeat of what you are saying. Wait for a squawk sound to indicate the parrot has finished speaking.

  Place a hand over the macaw's eyes and say, "Peek-a-boo," then remove your hands. Wait for a response from the bird. Turn on music and say, "Let's dance," or state the phrase and wait for the parrot to do the programmed dance to its signature song.

  Set the macaw to "sleep mode" when you are finished playing with your parrot.
