One of my favorite activities to cool off in the summer or
to even just play for fun was definitely involving water balloons. When it comes
to water balloons you can do so much with them. I know everybody has at least
participated in a water balloon toss or even a water balloon war.
When my group gets together and goes camping, almost three
times a day, which is seven days total of camping, we have a water balloon
toss. Our toss becomes extreme. We camp with a lot of people ranging between 20
to 30 people total. The best part is that all different ages come together and have
fun. We always have two or three buckets full of balloons ready to go as we all
stand in a huge circle with a good amount of distance. You can’t ever go wrong
when it comes to water balloons, the fun is constant. Sometimes that toss can
even turn into a water balloon war.
With the new toys coming out, there have been some that were
created that have to deal with water balloons such as the water balloon
splatter and the water balloon slingshot. The splatter is where each person has
an end of a rope in there hand. In the center is a circle type holder that
keeps the water balloon in place. Each person uses all there power to send the
holder with the balloon in it powerfully down to the other person they are
playing with. Eventually with the amount of pressure and power the balloon will
splatter all over someone. The slingshot is just a typical slingshot however it
is used for water balloons. One other new thing out is the water balloon
launcher. It’s almost a cone that you hold and just simply launch at someone.
Therefore, the balloon will fly out and splash open.
As you can see, water balloons can be turned into a wide
variety of different events, you can even come up with your own game. It’s a
fun, simple way to cool off and have fun. Especially if you aren’t extremely
hot and don’t want to be extremely wet. It may take some time to fill all the
balloons up, but in the end, it’s definitely worth it.
