Hi, friends! Reusable Water Balloons were all the rage this summer. I gotta admit, I was a bit skeptical. First and foremost, they are much more expensive than a package of balloons. Like….by a lot!
You can get 100 regular balloons for under $5, 350 Bunch O Balloons for under $20, but reusable water balloons come in at 12 balloons for $35. It’s easy to have sticker shock and discount them from the jump, but I encourage you to give them a closer look. When you start to consider how those 12 balloons can be used over and over again for years…that $35 doesn’t seem so bad.
So, what I want to do today is take a closer look at the infamous reusable water balloons to determine whether they are worth all the hype.

The Reusable Water Bomb Balloons are pretty straightforward. Choose the package you would like (4-pack, 6-pack, 12-pack, etc.) and that’s what is delivered. Regardless of the water bomb balloon package you select, a mesh bag is included.
Each balloon is made with the latest upgraded magnetic technology and highly durable high-quality silicone will last for years of enjoyment
How To Play
Drop the Reusable Water Balloons into a bucket of water or pool and watch as they fill up and seal in only seconds. Throw at the nearest target and watch as they break open upon impat.
Ease Of Cleanup
Unlike with traditional single-use water balloons, there is little to no cleanup with the resuable water balloon bombs. No little pieces of latex all over your yard that animals might eat. There is relatively no cleanup with the reusable water balloons.

Dad Rating: 5 out of 5. Love them. Really cool.
Wyatt Rating: 5 out of 5. They hurt a little bit when you get hit with them, but so do regular water balloons.
