Aromatherapy Bingo
I love this!
Maybe we can create some more cards, each one different, so that it would be more like real bingo.
If I ever make the time to do it myself, I promise I will attach the images! ????

Spinning balloons
Once the hairdryer is blowing on them they spin in a circle. The tape should not separate.

Spinning balloons
Hi there... please help us understand better. When you say the balloons are, "spinning in the air"... how? Do they release from the double sided tape? How do they go from stuck down to moving?...
