Walking on Air

Balloons pop if you stand on them, right? Not if you do it just so! Here's how your child can perform this fun feat.

What You Need
  • Four 7-inch balloons
  • Rimmed baking sheet
Instructions
  1. First, blow up the balloons to equal size. Set a rimmed baking sheet on top of them, bottom up.

  2. Now have your child position one foot in the center of the sheet -- thereby evenly distributing the pressure -- and then slowly step on with her full weight. It's a wobbly undertaking, for sure (an adult should serve as a spotter), but our testers reported that even a 125-pound parent climbed on without a pop.
