Hello. We are going to make a parrot today.
Inflate a balloon leaving a three inch flat tail.
(birds chirping)
The first two bubbles you twist to make the head.
(birds chirping)
Twist the first three inch bubble.
(birds chirping)
Twist the second three inch bubble.
(birds chirping)
Fold the the bubbles together.
And lock both ends of the chain of the two bubbles
in one lock twist.
(birds chirping)
Twist the third one inch bubble.
It's a neck.
The next three will make the bird body wings and body.
We will make them using bird body fold
or bird body twist.
Twist the fourth five inch bubble.
Twist the fifth five inch bubble.
Lock both ends of the chain of the last two bubbles
in one lock twist.
You have made the wings of the parrot.
Twist the sixth four inch bubble.
Lock the free end of the sixth bubble
between the fourth and the fifth bubbles.
Pull the fourth and the fifth bubbles apart.
And roll the sixth bubble between them.
You've made the bird body twist or fold.
The next four bubbles will make legs of the parrot.
Twist the seventh one inch bubble.
(birds chirping)
Twist the eighth one inch bubble.
Twist the ninth one inch bubble.
And the tenth one inch bubble.
Lock both ends of the chain of the last four bubbles
in one lock twist.
The rest part of balloon is the 11th bubble.
It's the tail.

You have made the parrot.
Use the permanent marker to draw
the face and wings of the parrot.
(birds chirping)
Congratulations, you have made the parrot.
You also have learned the bird body twist
or bird body fold.
You will quite often use this twist
to make many other animals,
bodies, hats, faces and anything else
your imagination will come to.
There would be just little differences
in the size and proportions of the bubbles.
Have fun.
