I have been hooked on balloons lately. We saw a man making hats for some children the other night, and he inspired me to pick up the pump again and see what I could do.

I have tried my hand at balloon animals in the past, and was not too excited with the basic “dog” that is so common. I did some searching, though, and found some great instructions. Here is a list of my “secret links.”

So I have been making some more advanced creations such as a motorcycle, character faces, and some of my own experiments.

I know it is a fad, but it is one that I hope I can use for our kids and the kids at church over time. There is always more to learn!
