This morning, I saw a little three year old girl sobbing, her cheeks wet with tears. Then I learned why.....her beautiful big yellow balloon somehow slipped from her little grasps and away it flew. It flew past the height of the church gates. Then it flew higher up above the trees. And it continued to fly over and above the nearby office buildings. Soon, the yellow balloon was way up high, higher than anything there was on the ground. I looked at the little girl, her face filled with grief as if she lost some great treasure. We both looked up to the sky and saw the yellow balloon getting smaller and smaller as it went flying higher and higher than before until we could no longer see it. How can I tell the little child what happened to her lost yellow balloon?
:-(

The balloon technically bursts. The pressure inside goes up as it gets higher and when it cant get any bigger it bursts. However my mom used to tell me that it went into heaven and the Angels kept them and when I die I will get them back. Since I heard that whenever I got a balloon I let it go, I loved watching it and thinking that I want to have more balloons than anyone else.

Depending on her sensitivity tell lost balloon have a purpose - and choose one of two outcomes:
The balloon landed near another poor and lonely child who really really longed for a yellow balloon but was to poor to buy it and now he's happy because it is the only balloon he'd ever have. Or tell her...
The balloon landed near a mean old ogre who did not like noise because it made him into a better person - and that balloon made a great big 'popped' and now the ogre is a good person.

The helium will eventually leak out, and the balloon will end up in someones yard, or animal pasture!!
Just for fun, one time at a friends kid party, they rented a helium tank, and put little messages into the balloons with an email address in it, there was someone who sent an email from over 300 & some miles away!

When the balloon rises up in the air, the air pressure around it becomes lower, so the balloon expands, expands and expands until it bursts.
Don't lie to the little girl; she deserves better. Explain what happens and why.

Well you can't tell her this but it's the thruth. It kept flying high. Until it popped. Then it landed and somehow got drifted into the ocean. And maybe an animal will die because of it. Don't let balloons go. They can kill our precious sea creatures.

You can tell the child that an angel wanted to play with the balloon, because the (angel) was curiuos to what it was, she did not want to make the child cry she just wanted to play with it?? Hope this helps.
