tried to make these it can be so
hard to keep the top open to get
the ingredients in the balloon. It
is usually a two man job. So my
idea was to cut off the top of a
plastic water bottle. Simply slip
the balloon inside and over the lip
of the bottle. Presto chango your
balloon stays open so you can put
the beans in!!!! I know, not that
amazing but it sure did impress
me.

Moving on… now all you need to do is
fill the balloon up. Have the kids help
using a nice pincer grasp to get all
those beans inside.
Once the balloon is filled up, tie it
off. Cut off the top of another
balloon and insert the bean ball into
the balloon with the top cut off.
