Balloons and string

Game Description

Each player blows up a balloon, ties a knot in the end, then ties a length of string to the end of the balloon and ties to other end to their ankle.

The players have to try to burst everyone else's balloons by stamping on them, while at the same time protecting their own balloon (they are not allowed to pick up the balloons). When a players balloon is burst, they sit at the side. The winner is the last player who has a balloon and then all the players who were out are allowed back in to try and burst the winners balloon.

NOTES:

A balloon that is only half inflated will be more difficult to burst.

Also a prize could be given if a player has happend to get a ballon which has already had a chocolate penny put in it.
