More about Crochet Water Balloons
This reusable water balloon crochet pattern is a great alternative to the classic water balloons we’re used to! But if you aren’t yet convinced, here’s a bit more information!
How do Crochet Water Balloons work?
It’s super simple!
- Grab a bucket and fill it with water,
- Dunk your crochet water balloon (PRO TIP: give is a squeeze while under the water so it can soak up even more!),
- Toss them at your unsuspecting target,
- Repeat!
My kids love to use their crochet water balloons in the pool. The best part of pool use is that the crochet water balloons float, so they are easy to keep track of.
