This is one of those questions that comes up every now and again. I was just researching alternatives to latex balloons for some standard science experiments (balloon cars, vinegar+baking soda, things like that). Seems there are plastic balloons out there, but the only ones I can find are far too large.
Has anyone discovered other alternatives? non-latex gloves? (I imagine condoms would work all right, but I don't see that going over very well with our visitors.)
thanks all,
AD
