HOW TO PLAY

Balloon Juggle
Challenge players to keep balloons in the air.  Once they have the hang of it, make the game harder by adding more balloons or adding restrictions; like no hands.

Balloon Help
Start off with everyone standing in a circle, facing eachother, with their hands behind their backs.  Each person gets between zero and three balloons, and the other players do not know how many each person has.  A selected person starts in the middle trying to keep all their balloons up in the air.  When it gets too hard, the person in the middle calls for someone else to help them, but that person must bring in all their balloons and keep them up as well.  Once it gets too hard for those two people, they call a third and so on until everyone is called.  The fun is that you never know if you call a person with no balloons or with three.

Balloon Finger Balance
See who can balance a balloon on their finger the longest.  To make it harder, try multiple balloons on different fingers or use thumbs only, or pinkies only. 

Water Balloon Toss
A classic water balloon toss starts with one water balloon and two players facing each other.  The pass the balloon back and forth, moving farther away from each other every toss.  Eventually the balloon will get dropped and water will splash everywhere.

Balloon Stomp
Each player ties a balloon to each ankle (not too tight).  When everyone is ready, the players try to stomp the other players balloons.  Once both your balloons are popped, you are out and the person that has at least one balloon left, wins.

Balloon Basketball
You will need 2 people as baskets, 1 referee and at least 2 more people as players.  This game is best played with 6 or more.  The basket people stand on a chair 3-4 feet apart, facing each other and making "hoops" with their arms.  The other players grab a chair and sit in between the two baskets.  Chairs can be set up in a random formation or can be in rows.  The referee tosses a balloon in the middle of the players, and players try to get the balloon in the their "basket hoop".  Each balloon in is worth two points.  Players can play to 20 points or for a set period of time where the highest points wins.
