Have you ever seen a peacock dance? And did it rain soon afterwards? Well, that’s a common belief anyway!!

Peacocks are associated with many traditional beliefs that indicate the arrival of impending showers.

Of course, given how hot it is these days, we would absolutely love to see a peacock dance and bring in some rain!!

Now even if that seems rather far-fetched at the moment, we have a way to make your wish come true. About the dancing part, that is – you can make your own dancing peacock with a brand new Rocking Peacock Paper Craft!
