Red, green and blue Balloons.
Balloons are items in the Donkey Kong Country and series that give the Kongs extra lives. As stated in the manual: "Earn extra lives by collecting balloons. Red balloons are worth one extra life, green are worth two, and blue will give you three."
The Red Balloons are more common than the other two types of Balloons. Balloons are often given out as prizes for completing a task (such as Swanky Kong's quizzes) successfully.
Balloons also appear in Yoshi's Island: Super Mario Advanced 2, and give 1 extra life when popped.
