Nina Learns to Balance

Nina wanted to stand on one foot. It was a fun challenge. She lifted one leg. Her body started to wobble. It was hard to keep still! Nina giggled a little. She put her arms out wide. They were like airplane wings. This helped her feel more steady. Nina also focused her eyes on a spot on the wall. Looking at one place made it easier to stay upright. Inside Nina's ear, a special part helped her. It sent messages to her brain. Her brain told her muscles what to do. Her feet felt the ground. Her eyes saw the wall. All these parts worked together. Soon, Nina could stand on one foot for a long time. She felt proud of her balance.
