Fish balloon - one of the favorites!

This fish balloon is always one of the favorites. It's actually not too complicated to make - it's the combination of color and shapes that makes this fish really cool.

This fish uses five balloons - two 260s, one large round balloon for the body, and two small ones for the eyes. (If you don't have small round ones, you can use a 260 to make the eyes with a couple loops twists.) Choose colors that will go well together.

You'll basically make two pinch twists (which might be the most difficult part) for the lips and two loop twists for the fins.

After making the balloon, I like to give a kid the chance to draw in the eyeballs/eyelashes, which they always enjoy.
