Hands on kids activities for hands on moms.
A while ago, Henry and I had a little Balloon Extravaganza.
Balloons are a blast! Get them out all year round!
Since then, I’ve been on the lookout for fun ways to play with balloons.
Here are 30 Ways to Play with Balloons:

How to paper mache and make a Bunny for an Easter craft from Spanish4Kiddos!
I’ve never paper mache’d with the kids, so I’m excited for this tutorial! And what a fun Easter craft to do!

Balloon Poppin’! A little after birthday party fun!
This was a great laugh for everyone! I was hysterically laughing, as were the boys! And it reminded me how much I loved doing activities with balloons. They’re so much fun, no matter what
We’ve been on a tin can binge,
so Henry and I had to make these drums from tin cans, too!
During my hunt for balloon ideas,
I found this tin can drum idea from both Quirky Momma and Mini-Eco.

When I saw a birthday wreath over at In Between Laundry,
I decided I had to make one (sort of like it) for Henry’s birthday today!
I plan to use this wreath over and over again for upcoming birthdays
and switch out the numbers
Fan + Balloon + a Preschooler = repeated fun!
All I got to show is this short 12 second video
of Henry dumping his balloon from his bucket.
He dumps it in front of the fan in our upstairs hallway.
The balloon blows down the hallway.

[1] paint before blowing up the balloons
[2] paint blown up balloons
I liked painting the balloons beforehand the best.
It had a sense of mystery.
