How to Make a Stress Ball
Stress balls help relieve stress while improving circulation. These are easy and economical to make.
Things You'll Need:
Helium quality balloon
Plastic juice bottle (the size of a pop bottle)
Kitchen scissors
Approximately 1/3 cup whole wheat flour
Plastic spoon or fork
(Optional) Permanent Marker
(Optional) Yarn
1
Create a funnel by cutting off the top of a plastic juice bottle with kitchen scissors.
2
Open the end of the balloon rolling it up the top of the opening of the plastic bottle as far as possible creating a snug fit.
3
Measure out approximately 1/3 cup of flour pouring it through your makeshift funnel directly into the balloon' s opening.
4
Use the handle of your plastic ware, or wooden spoon to gently slide the corn meal down into the belly of the balloon until you reach your
desired fullness, kneading the neck of the balloon moving the meal into the belly of the balloon.
5
Pinch the neck of the balloon, moving the remaining flour into the balloon, as you carefully remove the funnel from the opening.
6
Tie the end of the balloon tightly in a knot.
7
Draw a face on your balloon, if desired. This is where you get to be creative. Tie yarn around the knot to create a wild hairdo.
Tips & Warnings
You can draw a face or write a short message with a permanent marker.
