Initial Idea 3: The Wind and The Sun

The Wind and the Sun were disputing which was the stronger. Suddenly they saw a traveller coming down the road, and the Sun said: "I see a way to decide our dispute. Whichever of us can cause that traveller to take off his cloak shall be regarded as the stronger. You begin." So the Sun retired behind a cloud, and the Wind began to blow as hard as it could upon the traveller. But the harder he blew the more closely did the traveller wrap his cloak round him, till at last the Wind had to give up in despair. Then the Sun came out and shone in all his glory upon the traveller, who soon found it too hot to walk with his cloak on.

"Kindness effects more than severity."

I have chosen this fable as it reminded me of being a child in primary school. I like the idea of the sun and wind competing against each other. The fable has three main characters which would not be too difficult to create. However I am unsure of how i would create the wind and would possible have to include more objects such as trees and leaves to show the scene is windy.
