You've finally found Tigger and opened up Pixie Acres, which means you're close to finding the next Crystal Key you need in Disney Dreamlight Valley. Before you can get it, though, you'll have to help Tigger out, starting with The Balloon Family quest.
Tigger's got some special balloon friends in need of your assistance. Although it feels a bit like a side quest, getting through this mission is a key part of progressing the main storyline, so here's how to complete The Balloon Family in Disney Dreamlight Valley.

How to complete The Balloon Family in Disney Dreamlight Valley
To complete The Balloon Family quest, you need to find all members of the balloon family and reunite them. It's a pretty wacky mission, but it's also a crucial one to work through if you want to save Wishblossom Ranch, so here's a full breakdown of how to get through it.
Follow Tigger to Sundae Shores
Tigger has something to show you, so follow him over to the Sundae Shores region in Pixie Acres. If you lose sight of him, you can find this area on your own by heading to the very north edge of the biome. Once you're there, chat with Tigger to see what he wants.
Break the red balloon free from the rock trapping it
Tigger says the red balloons are his friends and wants your help freeing them. Equip your Royal Pickaxe and swing at the rocks to break them, freeing the balloons in the process.
Catch the Red Balloon
Tigger's friend takes off as soon as they're freed, so quickly chase after the Red Balloon to catch them. The balloon takes off to the upper section of the Sundae Shores region, but doesn't wander beyond this area.
I recommend using a horse or mount here, as the balloon moves around quite fast and is rather tough to catch up to otherwise. Once you have the balloon, bring it to Tigger to reunite him with his friend. Turns out, this balloon can talk, and it wants your help finding the rest of its family.
Find Mama Balloon
The first member of the family you need to find is Mama Balloon. She can be found in the upper region of Sundae Shores, which is the area overlooking the beach. This is the same area where you previously caught the red balloon.
In the middle of this region, you'll find a bunch of yellow balloons trapped by rocks. Equip your Royal Pickaxe and look for the balloon that has a slightly different face from the rest. For me, this one was close to the candles. It was the only one with rounded glasses, whereas all other yellow balloons had a flat glasses frame. If you're having a tough time finding it, you can also just break all the rocks until you find the right one.
Find Sister Balloon
Now it's time to find Sister Balloon. She was most recently spotted past the waterfalls and butterflies in the Hundred-Acre Fields part of Pixie Acres, so make your way up to this region to find her. She's fairly close to the same area where Tigger was trapped in a tree during the Bounce Up, Never Down quest.
The Sister Balloon and her many imposters are pink balloons that are mostly buried in the ground. It's a bit tougher to find the right one since they're all mostly obscured, but you can disgutish the real Sister Balloon from the fakes by locating the single pink balloon that has a bow. Use your Royal Shovel to set her free.
Bring Mama and Sister Balloon to Tigger
With both Mama Balloon and Sister Balloon in your inventory, meet up with Tigger and his red balloon friend back on the beachy area in Sundae Shores. Chat with Tigger to pass them over.
The family is still missing one member, and Tigger knows where to look, so follow him and the rest of the family over to the right spot. They'll lead you to the waterfall right outside of the entrance to the Hundred-Acre Fields region. Once you're there, chat with Tigger again.
Fish Papa Balloon out of the pond near the waterfalls
Equip your Royal Fishing Rod and fish out of the gold ripple spot in the middle of the pond by the waterfalls. From it, you'll catch a deflated version of Papa Balloon. Talk to Tigger about this issue and how you can fix him up.
Gather resources to fix the broken Helium Tank
Tigger's got a Helium Tank you can use, but it's broken, so you need to gather materials to repair it.
- One broken Helium Tank – Given to you by Tigger for chatting with him after finding Papa Balloon.
- Six Copter Seeds – Can be found growing in the wild all around Pixie Acres, including in Hundred-Acre Fields, Sundae Shores, Pixie Flats, and Hunny Falls.
- 12 Giant Acorns – Can be found by digging the ground anywhere in Pixie Acres, including in Hundred-Acre Fields, Sundae Shores, Pixie Flats, and Hunny Falls.
- Two Balloon Fish – Can be found when fishing outside of ripple spots anywhere in Pixie Acres. This includes in Hundred-Acre Fields, Sundae Shores, Pixie Flats, and Hunny Falls.
With everything you need to fix the Helium Tank obtained, head to any crafting station you have placed, or place one down if you need one. Switch over to the Functional Items tab and select the Helium Tank option to get crafting. Then, bring the repaired Helium Tank to Tigger.
Place the Balloon Family Bouquet anywhere in Wishblossom Ranch
Now that the family is back together, they're ready to go back to being normal balloons. Tigger wishes for them to become a Balloon Family Bouquet, and your next task is to find them a nice spot in Wishblossom Ranch.
Place them anywhere you like, take a picture with them, then chat with Tigger one last time to complete The Balloon Family quest. You're one step closer to getting the next Crystal Key you need, but first, you'll have to endure more of Tigger's hijinks, with your next mission being the Fun! Fun! Fun! quest.
