Movement
鈥 The children pretend to inflate like a balloon, starting from a tight round ball and getting bigger and bigger with each of the presenter鈥檚 puffs.
鈥 On the pop sound effect they wriggle to the floor to start again.
Song (to the tune 鈥楳ary had a little lamb鈥)
I have got a red balloon, red balloon, red balloon
I blow and blow and watch it grow .Til it is big and round
Now I tap it in the air
Floating here, floating there
But suddenly it hits the ground and bursts with a loud pop.
Children can join in with the song鈥檚 actions - blowing up a balloon and tapping it into the air.
Story: Too many balloons
