100px|thumb|The three most common speech balloons (top to bottom: speech, thought, scream). Speech balloons (also speech bubbles, dialogue balloons or word balloons) are a graphic convention used most commonly in comic books, comic strips and cartoons to allow words (and much less often, pictures) to be understood as representing the speech or thoughts of a given character in the comic. There is often a formal distinction between the balloon that indicates thoughts and the one that indicates words spoken aloud: the balloon that conveys subjective thoughts is often referred to as a thought bubble.

- During the first season of Sesame Street, several animated inserts were produced called Speech Balloon, in which a character says a letter and a word that begins with that letter. The word appears in a word balloon, accompanied by an image. According to the book Children and Television: Lessons from Sesame Street, these segments were inspired by the Muppet piece "Visual Thinking" as performed on The Ed Sullivan Show. As part of the show's bilingual project, certain segments also aired on Sesame Street in Spanish.
