I got this idea because he LOVES to push keys on my keyboard (when a key is pressed the light changes color). I'll be able to change what the buttons and switches do to provide some variety. The problem is I ran out of ideas for what to have the inputs do. So far I've come up with: blinking lights, changing color lights, mp3 player controls, and playing sounds. Any ideas?

That is such an awesome idea!! :D
Mabye a voice record button that records and plays back what ever noises he is making? or a button that plays you saying something to him? Also you would want the lights to be dull so as it sosnt damage his eyes. I think that is such a cool idea, sadly I have trouble just using this forum :lol:

Some time back, maybe a year, I read about a cockatoo that had an electric cart that he rode around on. it went forward and reverse and turned left and right. It had a joystick control.
