stress balloons demo

This is a video of teens making stress balloons in an effort to reduce the stress teen may feel during their adolescent years.  Making stress balloons is a fun activity to do with the  teens in your life and a great way to spend some extra time with them.  Stress balloons are easy to make, just follow the simple instruction on the video.  Enjoy!

I use to volunteer in a preschool classroom, where the teacher used a similar method. Her goal was not necessarily to help her students handle their stress, but it definitely helped them get their "jiggles" out. I think that this is a great idea and can be a great tool for stress management. I really liked how you let them personalize their balloon after.

Great idea! I'd love to try this with the 12 year-old I nanny. We've been looking for some more constructive ways to manage his stress rather than video games. Thanks for the idea!

I love this idea. It is something that you can use with everyday household items. It is truly an effective way in managing stress. I definitely will try this for when I am stress. Thank you for the instructional video.
