Using your Lil' Bird is super easy. First, hold it gently in your hands. To make it tweet and turn its head, just stroke its back softly. The more you pet it, the more it will respond with longer chirps and even whistles. To make it repeat what you say, press the talk - button on its chest, then say your message clearly. It will repeat it right back to you while moving its beak and turning its head. As for care, keep it away from water and sharp objects. If it gets dirty, you can use a dry cloth to wipe it gently. Remember, it's recommended for kids aged 5 and above, so adult supervision might be needed for younger children to ensure safe play.
