Renate-

I've tried the balloons, don't like them, mainly because they're another
"thing" to keep track of, carry around, etc., etc. Call me lazy, call me a
Luddite (many others have!), I just hate having to lug stuff around - even
something as tiny as a deflated balloon. And then you have to order them,
and pay for them, and be sure you don't leave them where a toddler might
choke on them...

I do use the balloons when I'm training peer counselors or doing a
"professional" presentation - they certainly are entertaining, and good at
breaking any ice that might still be lingering!
