About This Project

Create soft, squeezable balloon animals filled with surprise textures! These fun sensory pals are perfect for gentle play and discovery and learning about our sense of touch. These little critters are so much fun to squish around. Not only is this a sensory activity, it’s also great for building up fine motor skills. When you squeeze the balloon animals, they build up hand strength.
