Hot Air Balloons

The last couple of weeks I have been teaching about hot air ballons and how they work.  The children also made their own hot air ballons out of paper mache and berry baskets.  I couldn't get any pictures of the process, because it was so messy, but here are some of the finished balloons.






In retrospect, I wouldn't do this project again with such a young group of children.  The attention span of paper macheing a whole ballon per kid, was hard for 3 to 4 year olds.  But this would be a fun project for over 5!
