Today we learned about hot air balloons. Did you know that they are the oldest human carrying flight technology? Too much for a two year old, but definitely a cool fact for Mommy. Balloons happen to be one of Isaiah's favorite things (is there any child that doesn't like balloons?) so any balloon project is a hit in this house.
We made a simple hot air balloon out of things we had on hand: yarn, tape, and scrapbook paper. We've been giving "rides" to all of Isaiah's stuffed animal friends. Even the ones that wont fit. ;)
I'm dying to take Isaiah to a hot air balloon festival someday. The best I've ever seen is in Albuquerque, NM. But obviously, I'd love to aim for one closer. If anyone knows of any around Dallas, let me know!

There's a big one in Plano every year. I don't remember whether it's in the spring or fall though. - Beth
Please charge "the friends" on a per ride basis. Our child needs to learn some entrepreneurship if he's going to survive the cutthroat Lemonade Biz.
The Plano Balloon Festival is fantastic! It's like a carnival with all the fun food booths but with really pretty hot air balloons everywhere.
Oh I do hope Isaiah gets to open a lemonade stand this year.
Thanks guys, we will definitely check out the Plano Balloon Festival!
