A collection of kids' favorite animals!
Imagine a magical
piece of folding paper that gets really, really big... it's filled with
colorful cartoon images of kids' favorite animals. Now imagine those
images morphing into each other each time you unfold the paper. That's
what makes kids love Animal Mistake. And that's why they'll call you out on each mistake you make, and laugh out loud at the big, visual finale.
"Do dreams come true?" You ask your audience as you show a prediction envelope.
Then
a child selects a picture of an animal from a little coloring book. You
open the envelope and proudly show an illustration of a rabbit. The
kids tell you you're wrong-and that's when the magical morphing of the
animals begins-right before their eyes.
Each time you unfold the
paper, it gets bigger and the illustration magically changes. Your
audience will see the rabbit become a small dog, which will elongate
into a dachshund, which will transform into a seal and then a chicken
and finally a stork.
Every time you insist that your animal
prediction is right... and each time the kids will tell you that you've
made an Animal Mistake as they shout, "It's supposed to be an elephant!"
You make a joke about storks, and a long time ago people
thought they delivered babies. You unfold the last part of the giant
paper and show the stork was actually carrying a little elephant!
Luis Zavaleta and Professor Otto
from Peru based this prop and routine on Dick Stoner's "Grave Mistake."
Kids love watching the paper grow as it unfolds and constantly reveals a
new animal!
