This is a really great project with a very cool end result. Who doesn’t want ninja balls? They make the perfect gift for kids, or adults for that matter, plus they are super easy to make and cost next to nothing. All you need is some flour, a bag of balloons, a couple of appropriately sized plastic bottles and a small amount of time.
Once you are finished, you will have a whole bunch of squishy, fun balls that are durable and perfect for juggling, or anything the kids can think of. First, you need to cut the bottom off of one plastic bottle and put it inside the other, using it as a funnel to fill the second bottle with flour.
Once full, place an air filled balloon over the mouth of the flour-filled bottle and flip it upside down. Shaking it, fill the balloon with flour. Get all the air out of the balloon, then cut off the top. Take another two balloons with the tops cut off and place them over the first, making sure to flip them each time so the holes are covered.
Now for the ninja masks. Cut a balloon as he shows you in the video, then put it around the outside of your flour ball. Tada! You can use any imaginable color combination to make unique and beautiful designs. They are very durable, hold their shape when squished, and are solid enough to make perfect juggling balls.
If I were a kid, I would be so excited if someone made these for me, or better yet, helped me make them myself! What do you think about these awesome ninja balls?
Let us know if you made one and how it came out!
