The script.
Wobble learns a balancing trick using a smaller first step.
0–6s
Wobble: Welcome to my incredible balancing show! Oh. Those steps look much too big. My feet would like a smaller appointment.
Wobble studies an ambitious imaginary stepping-stone course but stays safely on the ground.
6–14sWobble: That try is too big for me today. I can start with one low step and a smaller move.
Wobble chooses a low, stable rounded step beside their foot.
14–24sWobble: Up, and down. I did that part! Tomorrow’s show may contain one additional wobble. No promises about the soundtrack.
Wobble rests one foot on the low step, then deliberately returns it to the ground.
24–31sWobble: Tiny try, still a try!
Wobble supplies a quiet trumpet noise.
