The balloon pump was the unexpected hero of this morning, so I thought I'd share this in case anyone is looking for play inspiration. Jon sometimes makes balloon animals, so we usually have one of these knocking about. I pretended to pump up both children by pointing it at their belly buttons (which made them laugh SO hard, as it tickled when the air blew on them), then I shouted "deflate, my little balloons!" and they ran around the room, pretending that the air was going out of them! 🤣 #playideas #playinspiration #ballooning #ballooner #balloonanimals #balloons #winning #ticklish #playtime #play #playfulparent #playfulparenting #playtherapy #theraplay #attachmentbuilding #buildingattachments #attachmentdisorder #attachment #adoption #parentingtip #parenttips #parentinghack #parenthack #activitiesforkids #preschooleractivities #gentleparenting #gentleparent #therapeuticparenting #therapeuticparent #adoptiveparent https://www.instagram.com/p/Chzk6wosk6b/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
