Equipment needed:

• Large balloon
• Cardboard tube

Instructions:

This game is best played outside, away from valuables, breakables, and other obstacles. However, this can also be played indoors as long as you ensure that there is ample space and breakables and other valuables are kept away so that these will not break or get damaged.

To play the game, inflate the balloon first. Then, show your child how to hit the balloon using the cardboard tube. You can also modify the game using 2 cardboard tubes and take turns bouncing the balloon the same as playing badminton.

Benefits: This game promotes hand-eye coordination and concentration.
