HOW TO MAKE HALLOWEEN STRESS BALLS
STEP 1. First, you need to blow up a balloon and hold it for 30 seconds. This will help pre-stretch the balloon before you fill it.
STEP 2. There are a couple of ways to fill the balloons. You can use a funnel for fine ingredients like flour. You can also use an extra set of hands to stretch the top of the balloon to fill with materials like playdough or corn kernels. It takes a bit of work to fill the balloons, so don’t give up if it doesn’t go quickly!
