Make a squishy toy and test it. Draft: not yet checked
Crew (first name, last initial):
Safety first
- Ask about latex and wheat allergies.
- Balloon pieces: choking risk under age 8.
- Flour is messy: work over a tray.
Prep
- Stretch a balloon over a funnel.
- Add about 1/3 cup of flour. Tie it off.
- Keep a second balloon for each kid.
Crew for prep: 4 people, about 1.5 hr. Prep happens on the day, from 12:15.
Run it
- Pick a pre-filled balloon.
- Stuff it into a second balloon of a different color (a helper holds it open).
- Tie it, or have a helper tie it.
- Draw a face. Squeeze slowly, then fast. Feel the difference.
Ask, instead of explaining: What happens when you squeeze it slowly, and then fast?
Clean up
- Wipe the table and put reusable items in your tote.
- Bag the trash and wash hands.
- Log anything borrowed so it can go back.
