These are so fun! They are so fun in fact, the boys haven't eaten the mini marshmallow I have given them..surprising. I have seen this idea on so many sites, I can't remember which ones.
You will need the following:
8 oz plastic cup
large-ish balloons
mini marshmallows or pom poms
(we may need to switch to pom poms considering we have lost a few marshmallows and I am concerned LOL)
First, cut the bottom off of the cup about 1/4 of the way off.
Cut the balloon bottom in the same way.
This next step was trial and error. I first tried to put the balloon over the bottom of the cup without tying it first. My fingers are still hurting... The second popper I made, I tied the balloon first :)
Stick the pom pom or marshmallow in it... Hold the bottom sides of the cup and pull the knot. The pom pom or marshmallow shoot out. Pretty darn cool if you ask me!! The pom poms actually work better. They are easier to find when popped and they won't attract ants if they are not found!! lol
