Extra Life Balloons first appear in ''[[Donkey Kong Country]]'', where they are in the shape of [[Donkey Kong]]'s head. An Extra Life Balloon is often rewarded for completing a [[bonus room|Bonus Area]], but a few appear in the [[level]] itself, such as on the treetops of [[Jungle Hijinxs (Donkey Kong Country)|Jungle Hijinxs]]. They can also be rarely found when certain areas are [[Hand Slap|hand-slap]]ped (in place of [[Banana Bunch]]es). Some Extra Life Balloons float up in the air and must be quickly collected before floating offscreen.

In ''[[Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest]]'', the Extra Life Balloons are changed into the shape of [[Diddy Kong]]'s head, likely owing to him as the new main protagonist. Extra Life Balloons rarely appear within Bonus Areas, which feature [[Kremkoin]]s as the main reward instead. The main method for obtaining Extra Life Balloons is by completing the quizzes at [[Swanky's Bonus Bonanza]], where the type of Life Balloon rewarded corresponds to the number of [[Banana Coin]]s the Kongs must pay to participate in a quiz. Some of the hints at [[Kong Kollege]] and the [[Monkey Museum]] provide hints on where the Kongs can find an Extra Life Balloon within a level. Some [[No Animal Sign]]s reward an Extra Life Balloon if the Kongs cross with an [[Animal Friend]]. Red Extra Life Balloons can also be found as one of the possible prizes on some [[End of Level Target]]s.

A few of the later levels feature black [[Klobber]]s, who cause Diddy and [[Dixie Kong]] to lose an Extra Life Balloon whenever it bumps into them. As the Extra Life Balloon(s) float(s) upward, the Kongs have a few seconds to recollect the Extra Life Balloon(s) before it/they disappear.
