I took large (12 inch) balloons and filled them to about 8 inches with water. We placed them in a tub of water near a shallow swimming pool. When it was time to play, I had the kids line up in the pool and placed a balloon in front of each kid's feet. They were hesitant about sitting on a balloon at first. But once they started trying to pop the balloons (with their bottoms), they realized how challenging it can be and the giggles started! One lucky girl popped 2 balloons before the other kids even popped one. She was our balloon champion! I would suggest preparing 3 or 4 balloons per kid, just in case one pops before the game starts. And so that each kid can get several minutes of enjoyment out of the activity. Sit and Squish was a big hit at my daughter’s 8th birthday party!
