My least favorite part of our church festivals are the balloon animals. My little princess and pixie always go to that booth first and then either try and carry it around without it popping, or give Mr. Sthole and me specific instructions to hang on to them until further notice. If they make it home, I then have to worry about them carrying their new little ‘pets’ off into their toy room or other areas of the house where I can’t keep an eye on their playing with them (balloons are such a choking hazard!). This doesn’t even go into the fact that in 24-48 hours the balloon looses it’s air and shape and we then have to mourn the passing of our new favorite friend.
This woman has ingeniously come up with a great solution to my problem- plush balloon animals! With a little twist here and then and a cleverly tied knot your little one can keep their balloon animal forever without the pain in the tush for you or the heart ache for them.
