Tall Horse is very tall! He can see over the sunflowers. When he walks he goes clip clop clip clop and does a big slow wobble. Neigh neigh neigh! Today Tall Horse helped Floppy Dog reach a leaf that was too high. He bent down slowly, wobble wobble wobble, and let Floppy Dog climb on. Clip clop, good job Tall Horse!
Lyrics: Tall horse... clip clop clip clop
Balloon horse... neigh neigh neigh
Slow wobble... little balloon horse
A story about helping a friend
Tall Horse may be the tallest of the balloon friends, but what makes him special is the way he helps others. His story is about slowing down, bending carefully and making sure a smaller friend can reach something that is out of reach.
A little idea for story time
Try the “clip clop” sound together as Tall Horse walks along. You can also talk about the little ways children can help their friends, just as Tall Horse helps Floppy Dog.
