Origami TALKING CROW
Origami TALKING CROW
Hi there, I'm Lizzy!
Hi there, I'm Lizzy!
I’m an artist living in Geraldton in the Mid West region of Western Australia. Each week I'll be adding a new Young Artist Academy activities that uses materials found around your home that the whole family can enjoy. Parent supervision is recommended for those under 13.
TALKING CROW
I'm going to show you how to make a talking crow using origami. Your crow will look like it is talking with its beak opening and closing as you flap its wings. You can decorate your crow to make it even more animated!
To keep the fun going you can also book a free 'Family Zoom' session with me for this activity. Click here to book a session. (Family Zooms are available to people living in the Mid West region of Western Australia)
If you have a question, please email me at lizzy@northmidlands.org.au
