This is how to make a small bouncy ball. You can even play with them in class, and they are so fun!

Steps

  1. Inflate a balloon and pop it, take the rubber of recently popped balloons, or inflate the balloon, don't tie the mouth piece, and let go.
  2. Take the popped mouth of the balloon, there should be a little rubber still attached to it.
  3. Hold the mouth down and stretch the remaining rubber and pull it over the mouth (it should stick on the mouth)
  4. Release it; if there is any remaining rubber on the mouth piece, stretch it and pull it over the mouth piece.
  5. Take the other pieces of rubber and do the same thing you did in the last step. Continue stretching and covering until you're satisfied.

 

Tips

  • The longer you stretch, the harder and bouncier the ball gets.
  • Make lots of little ones, different colours and give them to your friends.
  • Bigger rubber balls are more fun.

Warnings

  • It's hard, so if you are aiming at living things, don't aim for the head!
