Make Balloon People
Here is how to Make Balloon People with simple and inexpensive materials and lots of imagination. The kids will have a great time making a balloon for family members and friends. The finished project will result in conversations that you might not otherwise hear.
Supplies
Balloons of various sizes
Construction paper
Scissors
Marker
Tape
Instructions
First, print out the feet pattern below. If you are using water balloons, use the small-sized pattern. For bigger balloons, use the bigger one.
Next, cut some feet out of construction paper. If your balloon is extra big, use card stock paper. It is heavier and will work better to hold the balloon upright.
Now, use two pieces of tape to tape the balloon to the feet. Put one piece on the back side of the balloon and one on the front.
Draw faces on the balloons.
You can draw features on the shoes such as shoelaces, buckles, and bows.
Don’t feel like you’re an artist to draw faces and features? Not to worry! Whatever you draw will add character and spice to your balloon people.
