Reusable Water Balloons Free Crochet Pattern

I’ve seen these reusable water balloons around a lot lately, and it is genius!  So I set out to make my own!  So far my kids have had all sorts of fun with them.  Their favourite thing is to throw them up in the air as high as they can, and then watch them Splat! on the ground. 😀

These balloons take no time at all to work up, and they are quite easy to do!  You can also purchase a set of these reusable water ballons here in my Etsy Shop!
