What you need for this ZOOMdo:
  • 3 balloons
  • dried beans, like split peas or lentils
  • paper
  • plastic bottle
  • scissors
 
 
What you do for this ZOOMdo:

  1. To start, blow up a balloon and then let the air out. This loosens up the balloon.
  2. Fold a piece of paper in half; this will be your funnel for pouring the beans into the bottle.
  3. Stretch the balloon over the top of the bottle. Turn the bottle over and pour the beans into the balloon.
  4. Now, blow up your second balloon and let the air out. Cut off the top of the second balloon and stretch it over the balloon with the beans in it; this is to make sure the beans won't come out.
  5. Blow up a third balloon and let the air out.
  6. Cut off the top of the balloon and stretch it over the second balloon.
  7. And there's your Hacky Sack!
  8. If you want, you can make a few Hacky Sacks and juggle!
