Project 3 Scenarios
1. An apple falls from a tree and tries to get back up.
Obstacles: The branches are too high for him to reach, he doesn’t have any arms to climb the tree, and when he does manage to climb the tree it will be hard for him to balance because he doesn’t have any arms, and some of the branches are thin and flimsy.
Possible scenarios: The apple see a park bench nearby and tries to jump on one of the nearby tree branches. He sees a piece of chewed gum nearby and puts the gum on the bottom of his shoes so he will be able to climb the tree without arms.
2. A paperclip tries to return to its original container that is located on high shelf.
Obstacles/possible scenarios: The paper will start on a desk and make its way up to the shelves. As a result it will have to try and climb objects that are much taller than him in order to get to its container. Some of the objects may topple over and block its path.

I like your ideas, both are very similar maybe u can some how add a twist to make the story less generic. also is the apple and paper clip going to have legs? Your objects may look odd with them. Perhaps some legs are trying to get some apples out of the tree or a shoe in a tree or something.

I think these are cute ideas, I like the apple one more though. The gum on his shoes to go up the tree sounds very witty! Like he would struggle with different ways to get up, or try walking up the tree and fail. Then use the gum and it seems so smart!
