These balloons are enjoyable for kids and adults alike, and won’t leave you with dozens of tiny pieces of plastic to pick up after you’re finished playing.

There are tons of ways to customize this cute piece according to your preferences, such as a larger or smaller bow for your band, embellishments, or two-tone options.Extras – It will also often come with extras, including some starting yarn for practice and knitting and crochet needles.
