Birthday Balloons in Balloons(1000+)

How far in advance can I get balloons blown up for an event?

Latex balloons will only stay afloat for up to 12 hours, while mylar balloons can stay afloat for up to five days, so it depends on the type of balloons you are using as to when it would be best to inflate the balloons before an event. Helium will seep out of latex balloons much faster than foil balloons, so plan accordingly.

Is it cost-effective to buy your own helium tank?

Inflating your own balloons at home will save you money in the long run, depending on how often you inflate balloons and how many. You can either purchase or rent a helium tank, but if you can buy your own, you’ll find that helium is cheaper than if you take the balloons to a store to be inflated. When you take balloons to a store, you’re paying for the service and the helium.

What are some good fillers to put in pinatas?

Depending on the ages of the children, try to include a mix of small toys and party favors in addition to candy. Choose lightweight items that can be packed into a small space. Some ideas include plastic costume jewelry, small plastic cars, or mini rubber balls. Choose individually wrapped candy that comes in wrappers. Lollipops, fruit chews, and mini candy bars fit well in the pinata.
