  • EMMA: Hi.

  • I'm Emma, and I'm here to tell you all about the word

  • "balance." When something is balanced, it doesn't fall over

  • because it has equal weight on both sides.

  • Well, you may not know this about me, but I am great at

  • balancing things on my head.

  • So you want to see balance in action?

  • Check this out.

  • I will now balance this laundry basket on my head.

  • I'm gonna let go.

  • Here we go.

  • Gah.

  • OK.

  • I couldn't balance that because I couldn't get it to

  • weigh equally on both sides.

  • But I can definitely balance these.

  • Check this out.

  • I'm gonna balance these books.

  • All right.

  • Come on, books, don't fall.

  • Stay balanced.

  • ABBY: Woah, woah.

  • Hey, Emma, what's going on?

  • EMMA: Hey, Abby.

  • ABBY: [GIGGLING]

  • EMMA: I really hope you didn't see that.

  • ABBY: I did.

  • EMMA: Well, I'm trying to show everyone the word balance by

  • balancing stuff on my head.

  • But it's not really working out so well.

  • I can't do it.

  • ABBY: Oh, well, I can help you with balance.

  • EMMA: You can?

  • ABBY: Yeah, yeah.

  • I'll show you.

  • Are you ready?

  • EMMA: Yeah.

  • ABBY: Balance, balance, balance.

  • EMMA: Woah.
