This balloon tennis game is a keeper for us. My son has high energy and being stuck inside all day is no fun unless he can get some energy out. I love simple, inexpensive games that are easy to set up.

  1. My son got given a tennis racquet for his 3rd birthday but was finding it difficult to hit the ball more than once with it (he loves any ball sports!) but I saw this and we tried using balloons and he can repeatedly hit them – such a confidence booster and soo much fun – a new dimension to ‘keepy uppy balloons’! Thanks for the idea.
