klc106 Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 Hi Has any one made flour babies with their children (balloons with faces filled with flour). I remember having them when I was younger and it was very therapeutic squashing it in my hands and we have a few boys who I think it may help when they get upset/angry. We do have feely balloons in our discovery and have had only had 3 burst over the year. Do you think the balloons will be strong enough as a tension reliever for our boys? Hope that makes sense :1b
Guest Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 I have never heard of flour babies - please tell me more!
louby loo Posted May 28, 2014 Posted May 28, 2014 We used to make rice balls at rainbows- they were very 'squeezy' never thought to do it with a younger age group. Our lot burst balloons within minutes of having them :lol:

finleysmaid Posted May 29, 2014 Posted May 29, 2014 made these years ago for a fathers day activity! actually they don't pop very easily because they are so dense ...always sent them home though so i don't know how long they would last in the setting! 1

You wouldn't get much in an 'un-blown' balloon ... I need an idiots guide :blink:
