Balloon Ball

The cover slipped right over a regular balloon and now it survives daily hallway soccer without popping. It's light enough that nothing in the living room has broken yet.

My toddler kicks this thing around the living room for a solid hour without breaking anything, which is a small miracle. The fabric cover fits over a regular balloon and keeps it from popping when it hits the walls. Way better than chasing a bare balloon under the couch every two minutes.

I was skeptical about a fabric cover actually staying on a balloon, but it grips tight and hasn't slipped once during indoor kickabouts. The lightweight cover means even wild kicks don't send it flying into lamps, though it still drifts nicely on the grass outside.
