They are so neat, you fill them with water, pump it a few times to get the air out, put a water balloon on the nozzle, push the button and watch the balloon fill with water :) It works great to blow balloons up with air as well.
It came with 500 water balloons and strings for tying them :) I just tied knots in the balloons
We blew up a bunch of balloons. Sammie loves pumping it up and pushing the handle, while Maddie and I put the balloons on and tied them up :)
They started out throwing them at the grass and watching them break :) I made sure to teach them to pick up all the broken pieces that they could find
It got very warm as the afternoon went on, so we got the little wading pool out and the girls changed into their swimsuits. I blew up some more balloons and threw them into the water
Sammie got out her fishing net and went fishing for balloons :)
Maddie joined in too, using a strainer as we have only one net
After they were done fishing, they stood in the pool and tried breaking the balloons by standing on them :) That was kind of tricky.
I think they eventually went back to just throwing the balloons around the yard and watching them break :)
