Laura sits in her living room with her dog Lola. Laura is in her twenties, with long straight brown hair with bangs in pigtails and she wears a striped sweater.

She says HEY TVO KIDS, LAURA HERE
HANGING FROM HOME.
AND CHECK IT OUT,
I HAVE ANOTHER REALLY FUN CRAFT
TO SHARE WITH YOU.
THIS ONE IS SUPER COLOURFUL.
AND I THINK LOLA'S A
FAN OF IT, TOO,
SO HERE IT IS.
FIRST, TAKE A PIECE OF
COLOURED PAPER
AND PENCIL OUT
THE SHAPE OF A BALLOON.
TRY TO MAKE IT A
SYMMETRICAL AS POSSIBLE.
THIS MEANS IT LOOKS
THE SAME ON BOTH SIDES.
WHEN YOU'RE FINISHED,
CUT OUT THE BALLOON.
NEXT, TRACE IT ONTO ANOTHER
PIECE OF PAPER
AND DO THE SAME.
DO THIS UNTIL YOU HAVE SEVEN
PAPER BALLOONS
IN WHATEVER COLOUR YOU LIKE.
NEXT, TAKE YOUR PAPER BALLOON
AND FOLD IT IN HALF.
DO THIS FOR EVERY ONE OF THE
BALLOONS, LIKE THIS.
NOW YOU'LL NEED SOME GLUE.
I'M USING HOT GLUE, BUT YOU CAN
ALWAYS USE A GLUE STICK.
IF YOU PLAN TO USE HOT GLUE,
MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A PARENT OR
GUARDIAN'S SUPERVISION.
NOW, PUT SOME GLUE ON
THE OUTSIDE EDGE
OF ONE OF THE BALLOONS,
AND GLUE IT TO THE OPPOSITE
OUTSIDE EDGE OF ANOTHER,
LIKE THIS.
CONTINUE TO DO THIS FOR
ALL THE BALLOONS.
IT SHOULD START TO
LOOK LIKE THIS.

Now the craft looks like a multi-colour 3 D balloon.

Laura says ONCE YOU'VE GLUED ON
EVERY BALLOON,
TAKE THE LAST TWO EDGES
AND GLUE THOSE TOGETHER.
NOW YOU HAVE A SUPER COOL,
3D PAPER BALLOON.
BUT YOU'RE NOT FINISHED YET.
NEXT, GRAB A TOILET PAPER ROLL
AND CUT OFF THE BOTTOM EDGE.
GRAB A PIECE OF PIPE CLEANER
OR SOME STRING
AND TAPE OR GLUE IT TO THE
INSIDE OF THE ROLL.
AND OF COURSE, DON'T FORGET TO
DECORATE IT HOWEVER YOU'D LIKE,
THIS WILL BE YOUR BASKET.

She glues pompons around the basket.

She says LASTLY, TRIM THE PIPE CLEANERS
AND GLUE THEM TO THE OPPOSITE
SIDE OF THE BALLOON.
THERE YOU HAVE IT,
YOUR VERY OWN HOT AIR BALLOON.
AND DON'T FORGET
TO ADD SOMEONE INSIDE.

She adds a small cutout of a dog and says I'M ADDING LOLA.
YOU CAN EVEN GLUE SOME STRING ON
TOP AND HANG IT UP.
HERE'S THE FINISHED PRODUCT.
HOPE YOU ENJOYED.
AS YOU CAN SEE,
LOLA IS ENJOYING HER RIDE.
BUT TVO KIDS, I WANNA KNOW WHAT
ARE YOU CREATING AT HOME.
