Cut stress in a fun way!

Kids love stress balls- here is a way to make your own! For safety is it only recommended that you do this activity with kids older than 5.

What supplies you will need:

Balloon in your kid's favorite color
Flour
Funnel
Plastic Straw
Permanent marker
Yarn

Blow up the balloon and release the air a few times. This stretches it a little.



Place the mouth of the balloon on the funnel



Put flower in the funnel, use the straw to push it through the hole if it doesn't go through by itself


Fill the balloon with flour but don't go past the bottom of the thin part


Tie a secure knot in the balloon


If your kid wants a face on the stress ball, let them draw it using a permanent marker


For hair, tie pieces of yarn to the top of the balloon
