Chenille Water Balloons Dolce
Water balloons are nothing new. Crochet ones appeared a few years ago and there are plenty of the patterns. But I made one for chenille yarns available here in the Czech Republic.
I used YarnArt Dolce but a similar substitution is Himalaya Dolphin Baby. One skein has 100g/120metres. I chose Dolce because it is certified for usage for kids under three years of age and it has the “testing” certificate from the Czech Republic (according to the Czech legislative it has to have this kind of documentation otherwise cannot be used for toys/accessories/clothes for children when you want to sell your products).
I love this crochet water balloons idea very much because:
I can use any kind of chenille leftovers;
this pattern is very fast project without weaving the ends and no stuffing is needed;
kids love it! It could be also fun for the whole families or even older children/adults;
it is reusable, eco-friendly and washable and no plastic waste or cleaning after the game is over;
it is soft material.
How to use water balloons?
- prepare a bucket of water
- soak the water balloons in it
- throw it after each other and run
- after the game collect the balloons and wash them
- we need approximately 3-4 balloons per a kid
Use in e.g. gardens, pay attention to good shoes (game involves running) and climatic condition (hat, sun cream and so one). Never leave children to play unattended!
The pattern is very simple.
