Balloon Puppets

Blow up a balloon to the size of a large cantaloupe. Tie on several stands of curled ribbon and knot around the balloon knot. The ribbon will make the hair and then attach a loop of ribbon to slip over the child's hand. Let the kids make faces using, markers, stickers, gummed reinforcement circles and whatever embellishments you can find.
When they are finished, let them wear their balloon puppets on their wrists.
