In this Scratch project, a cute dog barks when the green flag is clicked, while its costume changes to show a barking pose. At the same time, the background also changes. This is a fun way to learn how to use sound, costume switching, and backdrop changingĀ together in a single animation.


āœ… Step 1. Add Sprites and Backdrops

  • 🐶 Choose a Dog spriteĀ (like ā€œdog2ā€ or any custom one).

  • Make sure it has at least 2 costumesĀ (e.g., normal and barking). If not, you can duplicate and edit.

  • šŸŒ„Ā Add 2 backdropsĀ (e.g., ā€œParkā€ and ā€œYardā€ or ā€œStreetā€).


āœ…StepĀ 2. Add Dog Bark Sound

  • Click on the Dog sprite, go to the Sounds tab

  • Click ā€œChoose a Soundā€ and add ā€œDog2ā€Ā or any barking sound


šŸ“ŒĀ Code for Dog Sprite:

when green flag clicked

play sound [Dog2 v]

switch costume to [barking costume v]

switch backdrop to [next backdrop v]

say [Bow] for 2 seconds

switch costume to [normal costume v]
