Balloon Fun

    By Mick

Some great fun can be had with balloons, and I always make sure I have some on hand just in case the need arises to have some fun.

What you will need

Balloons.

A little bit of space to play.

Marking pens

What To Do

There are so many games to play using balloons and children of all ages love them. They can help with your child's coordination, and can help teach our young ones simple ball handling skills. Here are just a few suggestions of what to play...

Put up a string between to pieces of furniture and play "volleyball" over it with the balloon.
Firstly with hands, see who can keep the balloon in the air the longest without it touching the ground, once good at this, use your feet only, it is much harder to keep it off the ground this way.
Remember those cardboard boxes, make a balloon target from one, and see how many times you can get the balloon into the box.
With the marking pens, draw each others faces onto the balloons, see what you look like to your children!!
Hot Day, no problem, water balloons are the go!
I'm sure there are many other ways you can think of to play with balloons too, if not, ask the youngsters:-)

Helpful hints...

When playing with balloons, try to move as much furniture out of the way as possible, giving more room to move and less objects to bump into.
If using balloons outdoors, watch the grass...and loud bangs:-)
Birthdays are fun, you blow up about 60 or so balloons and hide their presents in amongst them in their room, starts the party off with a bang!!

Now, go and enjoy your quality time with the children.
