Once upon a time there were three balloons, Mummy Balloon, Daddy Balloon, and Little Balloon. Every evening they all slept together in Mummy and Daddy Balloon's big bed.
One day Mummy Balloon said to Little Balloon, "Now you're growing up it's time you started sleeping in you're own bed, starting tonight".
So that night Little Balloon went to bed to sleep on his own. Now in the middle of the night he woke up in the dark room all on his own and was very, very frightened. So he crept into is mum and dad's room and tried to snuggle in between them as before. But he now realised that his mum was right, he'd grown so much he just couldn't quite get in. So, being very clever, he carefully let a little bit of air out of Daddy Balloon, and tried to get in again. Still not quite enough room he did the same to Mummy Balloon, but no, still not quite enough room. Finally he tried letting a bit or air out of himself, and hey presto he was in!
Well the next morning Mummy Balloon was furious with him,as was Daddy Balloon. She said to him in a rage, "Last night young man you let me down, your daddy down, but worst of all you let yourself down!".
Boom boom!
