If you are planning to throw a children's party in the style of "pirate life", then you cannot do without the main weapon of the robber - the sword. A plastic sword can be traumatic, a cardboard one will quickly break, but a ball sword is just what you need! With its help, you will protect the life of your children and give them a lot of unforgettable emotions.
It is necessary
- - special long sausage balloons (1 balloon = 1 sword);
- - pump (optional).
Instructions
Step 1
Even preschoolers can master twisting (modeling from balloons), so you can offer to make a sword from a balloon directly during a party, in one of the contests. This type of creativity will not only delight the little ones, but also contribute to the development of hand motor skills, as well as their creative imagination and model thinking.
Step 2
In order to start creating a sword, you need to familiarize yourself with the basic rules of twisting. When inflating the balloon, be sure to leave a 3-5 cm segment not filled with air. When twisting, free space is required otherwise it will burst. To create a figure when twisted, the ball is divided into bubbles. And in order to distribute the air evenly, after each twisting, slightly squeeze the ball.
Step 3
Perform all twists with one hand, and hold the first and last bubble with the other. With each twist, make 3 turns around the axis. Please note that all turns are performed strictly in one direction (either clockwise or counterclockwise). At the end, tie the finished product in a knot without using a thread.
Step 4
After you have mastered the basic rules, try to put your knowledge into practice by creating a sword from a balloon. Inflate the balloon and tie it into a knot. Bend the resulting sausage at a distance of 20 cm from its end. After that, make another bend. You should have a snake.
Step 5
In the center of the snake, squeeze all the layers and twist the ball several times. Spread it out gently. That's it, the homemade sword from the ball is ready! With such a weapon, it is not scary to leave children alone on the battlefield.
