Globo solar para actividades escolares para niños de Tedcotoys, de 50 pies, por TEDCO

This was way cooler than expected. I will say that it only works on a hot day in the sun. So plan around that. Also, it’s HUGE!!!!! it rose up into the air with the wind, and I kept it at about 40 feet above the ground. It floated on its own at about 5 feet and stayed above the ground. It would’ve gone much higher if I would’ve let it.

Fun and educational. I know because I have used one like this before. Unfortunately, this one arrived with a huge opening holes on both ends as opposed to just one end.

This is great fun! You must be very careful with the balloon because it will tear easily. It can be patched with thin packing tape. It works best earlier in the morning because it warms up with the sun and will rise into the air. I get this balloon every year to use with my middle schoolers and they love it.! You may need some extra string because it can go very high.

We bought this and didn’t use it for a while. 13 year old decided to bring it to the beach. It was amazingly fun! Hard to control, a little wild, but seriously, it’s so large people walked from way down the beach to see what the amazing “floating sausage was.” It is thin, as people note. But it landed in the ocean multiple times and scraped across the shells and was just fine. We also did it with some wind blowing which is not recommended but added to the fun.

Ok, seriously, this thing is fun! All the kids around us were just in awe. But, ANY wind and it will blow away or get damaged on sticks, trees, anything at all. Ours has a couple of holes in it but it still fills up. I'm going to try and patch it with some tape. My 12 yo son loves to fill it up (which is quick, like 30 seconds) and run around with it. You will not regret this toy! Get outside and have fun.

We loved this balloon. It is a bit fragile, but we had no problems getting it full of air and it wasn’t very windy. You really need a sunny day for it to work. We did it on a cloudy day and it would fly really high then float back down when the clouds came by. We did get a small hole on the end but tied it off, no problem. I had purchased two in case the first one tore but we didn’t need it.

After reading reviews about the balloon tearing easily, I thought about where to use the balloon and decided that the local soccer fields would be perfect since they’re mostly wide open. The balloon worked better than I expected and we had our fun for about an hour. unfortunately, since the balloon is so long, it wrapped around a soccer goal and was easily torn. We’re planning to buy another one because we really enjoyed it but will need to find a big area with NOTHING around in order to avoid tears.

I bought and have used these as part of a science camp that I teach for elementary students. They are a lot of fun, but you do have to be very careful.Caution: They are essentially like a big, ultra-thin trash bag. They work best on clear days in the early morning (so I've heard), However, I've used them in the morning and afternoon, low humidity, high, etc. When you tie your string to the end you're holding, be careful not to tear the bag when you are opening it back up to pack up. I always caution them NOT TO TOUCH THE BAG AFTER INFLATED. It is easy to puncture, especially when inflated. Even touching it may leave a finger imprint. My kids like to roll/ run underneath it as it sometimes floats up and down, but with that, their foot can easily tear it if it strikes it. Make sure you are …
