What You'll Need:

• Many balloons (30–40); See our selection of balloon kits and refills
• An air pump (optional)
• A set of adult-sized clothes for each team such as a sweatshirt and sweatpants. You may want to use a martial arts uniform for this game.

Preparation:

Blow up at least 30 small balloons (i.e. no more than 6" long or wide). An air pump might be useful!


At the Party:

1. Divide the children into teams of 3 or 4.


2. Have each team choose one player to be sensei, which means “teacher.”


3. Place the balloons between the teams.


4. Have each sensei put on a set of adult clothing over his/her clothes.


5. Set a timer for 1 or 2 minutes.


6. When you say "Go," each team must stuff as many balloons as possible under their sensei’s clothes.


7. When the timer dings, remove the balloons from each sensei one at a time, counting to see who had the most (popped balloons don't count).


8. Award a prize to the winning team!
