Childhood memories: Blowing Bubble Balloon

When I was younger, there was no iPad or whatever Pad to entertain me. One of my favourite activities was cycling and I always cycled to the nearest sundry shop to get this:

Blowing Balloon in a tub that smells like glue. Anybody remembers this? 

During the Chinese New Year holidays, we introduced this to Ethan.

I squeezed it out for him and let him blow through the straw.

    These days, quality lower. Very thin and breaks easily.

    Me!!!! I’ll still buy it and blow bubbles everytime when I happen to come accross this bubble thingy, so funnn :D

  • //

    I bought this too but the ballon is very fragile, not suitable for kid who are too “rude” :P

  • //

    Yeah yeah yeah can remember..

    My kids LOVE this!

    I think they enjoy it even more by bursting it on their forehead x_x

    Coincidentally, I also bought a few of these bubble balloon for my girls. They love playing it.

    USed to buy it during schooling time. Each packet priced at 0.20. Mom will scold me the moment she saw this in my bag.heheheh

    Happy Chinese New Year to you and family.

    lol..so cute! I also played this during my childhood but I was a lousy balloon maker! it always burst!

  • //

    my favourite those days.. used to blow directly using the mouth w/o the straw by bursting a hole and then patch it back.. hehehe..
