A balloon with a surprise is a very original and inexpensive way to make a present for a child for the holiday. These balloons can be presented to all children who come to your child's birthday or for some other reason. It is even better not to give them, but to hide them in the apartment, and whoever finds which ball will receive it. It is not difficult to make a ball with a surprise; it is more difficult to choose a useful "filling" for it. "Filling" can be any small interesting gizmos, toys, high-quality sweets, for example: children's jewelry, wrist watches, hair clips, small cars or dolls, stickers, shells, beautiful stones, balloons, a mirror, a notebook, magnets, animal figures, cookies , sweets and much, much more. To make one ball, it will be enough to prepare 3-4 gizmos.
The surprises prepared in advance will need to be wrapped with ribbons of corrugated paper to end up with a cocoon in the shape of a ball with hidden gifts inside. The most valuable thing is best placed in the center of the ball. The process of making a ball with a surprise resembles an episode from the movie "The Diamond Hand", in which smugglers hid jewelry in plaster.
The finished ball can be decorated if desired.
