Renewable, Reusable Party Balloons

Updated: Aug 4, 2023

According to slate.com, the first-ever rubber balloons were invented in 1824 by Michael Faraday and since then, it has been polluting our oceans, destroying our unique land and breaking down the economy and aeroplanes in the sky. They're most commonly used at parties and with ebullient vibes. However, there is an even more important purpose. Fun. I don't know about you, but playing with a balloon is the most enjoyable pass time yet. There are so many games, like keeping it off the ground, juggling like with a football and hitting back and forth.


Now, let's cut to the chase. Have you noticed that balloons run out of air so very rapidly? One second it's full, the other it's not. The more air it loses, the closer and closer it gets to polluting our Earth even more. Still, Brainspark has managed to come out from the woods and create probably the first-ever reusable balloon. This majestic object is so easy to make and it just takes a balloon, a rubber band and a lot of air.


Firstly, fill up the balloon to your desired size. Next, twist the hole around 5 times (do six, just to be safe). Then, take your rubber band and loop it around the tied-up end, maybe another 5 times. If your balloon is smaller, definitely make the band tighter. Once this is done, put the balloon to your ear and see if there is any leaking sound. If there is, then take off the rubber band and restart the process. If there isn't, congratulations! You're all set! But, you might be asking yourself, how is this reusable? Unlike the regular method of tying the balloon with itself or string, with this technique, you can refill the same balloon numerous times. For example, if you run out of air, no worries. Just unravel the rubber band and fill it up again. This new method can reduce a lot of the amount of pollution in our beautiful, blue seas. Don't forget, at the end of the day, every little bit counts!


The purpose of this text isn't just to teach you about how reusable balloons can save our world, but for a kid to write a funky comprehension as a blog :)
