If you like animals, acting, making up words and doing silly voices, then this activity is for you!

 

Find the Voice is all about one simple question: if an insect or an animal or a bird had a voice and could speak, how would it sound? Would it speak with a quick, fidgety voice, or a sloooow looooow deee

                                         ee

                                              eep kind of a voice, or a shy, small, scared wisp of a voice. And what would it be saying?

 

So here's the Find the Voice challenge: you have to look at the creature - really look at the creature, study its shape and its movement and its character  - and then find its voice.

 

First of all check out these examples and see if you think our actor has got the voices right...

find the voice

'I can't believe it'

'Hello? Hello??'

'ere's one!'

How did we do? And which was your favourite? If you think we found the wrong voice then why not turn the volume down, run the film again and have a go at doing your own?

Or else go straight to our Find the Voice challenge: see what voices you find to suit the film clips below. Run the film, have fun, and do your own craaaazy voices! (We've given you some possible ideas, or just go ahead and use your brilliant own).

possible ideas:

  • a James Bond-type spy

  • 'Ready or not, here I come!'

  • 'I just can't resist chocolate...'

'Ah, lovely nectar'
