How do I get a slingshot and how do I look up into the sky?

To get a slingshot you need to buy one from Tom Nook's Store, but as he changes stock everyday this may take some time. He sells it for 500 bells, but I've heard 400 bells, anyway, the slingshot is used to shoot down the balloons that randomly carry presents. When you see one, run to the back of your town and press A while you have the slingshot equipped to shoot the present, assuming you're under it, down. The top screen shows the sky, by the way, so you don't need to press a button to look up.

You buy a slingshot from tom nook. To shot ballons down you need to run up as far as you can in your town(to the north side of town) and shot the ballon by pressing A with the slingshot in your hands.

To get a sling shot you have to by it and you can't look to the sky it's on your top screen

To get a slingshot you must by one from tom nooks store he sells them for 500 bells you can shoot presents on baloons down from the sky and when you've shot 15 presents down from the sky you should see a golden slingshot attached to a baloon next time you see a baloon.You can't look up into the sky.

Hope I helped
P.s to shoot a present on a baloon you press the A button
