The children need to form a circle. This game is similar to
musical chairs, except no children are eliminated from the game.

The child who has the balloon when the music stops gets to pop
the balloon and can either try to answer the trivia question or
do the silly thing that is written on the card.

- 1 pack of round balloons
-
Idea cards
- Music
Step 1: Write/print idea cards with trivia and silly things
(see back page)
Step 2: Fill balloons with idea cards and inflate.

TIP: To give the balloons more flare, you can put a little confetti
into the balloon before you inflate it.
