Youth Activity #6 - Balloon Bonanza

2/2/2015

For our most recent Atomic Friday, we decided to take something thought of as being "childish," balloons, and find out some more "grown-up" things we can do with them.  I did a lot of research, and found at least 10 fairly unordinary things to do with balloons.  You could do your own research and find out what fits your group, but I will give you 5 examples below.

In the spirit of Atomic Friday, we had to make it a challenge (red team vs. blue team as usual)!  I carefully stuffed all the ingredients needed to complete each activity (with the exception of some ingredients that I obviously couldn't put into a balloon) into separate balloons (red balloons for the red team, and blue for the blue) and inflated them. 
 
I briefly explained each activity, showing an example of the finished product and describing what was in each balloon.  Then I spread all their balloons out on the floor and said "Go."  Each team had to pop the balloons and complete the appropriate activity. The first team to complete all the activities was the winner.  Here are some examples of the activities:

Hope this can be an inspiration for a great activity night with your youth group. Let us know if you have any questions about any of these activities or want to share other ideas.
