Get your balloons out and your competition face on, for these balloon games that you can play with your family and friends.
balloon race #1
Line up along a starting line.
Each player must place an inflated balloon between their knees.
Race to the finish line, keeping the balloon between your knees and not touching it with your hands.
Tip: Jumping works best!
balloon race #2
Pair up with a partner.
Each pair must place a balloon between their chests or backs.
Race to the finish line without losing the balloon on the way.
No hands allowed!
balloon volleyball
Split players into two teams.
Create a 'volleyball net' across the room by tying a string from one end to the other. You could also use sticky tape.
The teams must stand on either side of the net, and hit the balloon back and forth until it touches the floor.
Whichever side the balloon lands on, the opposite team will get one point. The winning team will be the first to reach 10 points.
Keepy-Uppies
Split players into two teams, with one balloon per team.
Team members must hold hands and keep holding hands throughout the game.
The teams must keep their balloon off the ground for as long as possible, without using their hands.
Get creative with heads, shoulders, knees, feet, or even backs!
