The Talking Chicken! 🐥🎤✨

👧🐔💬 Have you ever imagined a chicken that could see what you do and respond in a funny way? In this lesson, you’ll create a Talking Chicken that reacts to your face — when you open your mouth, it opens its beak and chirps happily! 🐣🎶 When your mouth is closed, it quietly closes its beak again. Your chicken will also walk around the screen forever, as if it’s exploring the world and talking at the same time! 🌍🐾 Through this project, you’ll learn how computers can use face detection to react to human expressions — a first step toward creating interactive and intelligent characters. By the end of the lesson, your chicken won’t just move — it will see you, react to you, and come alive! 🌟

💡 Teaching Goal: Kids learn how to connect Face Sensing with Looks and Sound blocks to make sprites respond to real human actions.

  • How to use the Face Sensing extension to detect when your mouth is open
  • How to make a sprite switch costumes depending on your facial expression
