How to make a sword for a small warrior with your own hands?

When children are still small, it's easier for them to pick up toys. But they gradually grow and require not only toys, but also your participation. An excellent helper here can be balloons. The stores now have a huge number of different sizes and colors. But we are talking about long balls in the form of sausages. Of these, it is convenient to make different figures and accessories. Even if you do not know how to make a sword from a ball, experiment it, it's not difficult at all. But how much fun you deliver the child!

The initial actions are the same for any toy. How to make a sword from a ball, if there is nothing else at hand? First of all, it is necessary to inflate it. When buying a set, pay attention to the availability of a device that simplifies the inflation process. It could be a plastic pump or something else. This kit is a bit expensive, but it simplifies the process. If desired, you can train the lungs by inflating the ball yourself. To slightly ease this task, remember the ball in hand beforehand or stretch it several times.

Inflate it should be in equal portions, if the air does not pass to the end of the sausage, you can help it lightly by clamping different areas. You should get an even sausage. To be convenient to work in the future, leave a tip of 5-10 cm not inflated. Let's consider the whole sequence of actions. We have already completed the first step, now we are starting to create a toy. How to make a sword from a ball without using any additional devices? To make it more convenient to work, do not inflate heavily its rear end or slightly release air from it.

We take the inflated workpiece, we retreat from the edge 5-7 cm, twist the ball at this point so that we get a pen. Now measure another 5 cm and turn again, then bend the workpiece and fix the resulting bend in place of the first twist. We do the same thing again. We got a handle of the sword, in two directions from which the protective trays are directed, the rest of the ball will be a blade.

If this is difficult for you, you can use another scheme. How to make a sword from a ball using a minimum of actions? Inflate, measure from the edge of the area of 20 cm and twist. Then we direct the separated piece downwards and after 10-15 cm we connect it with the main blade. The loop turned out, in this way we rather created a saber than a sword, but for children it's all the same, the main thing is there is a weapon.

How to make a sword from a ball, we have already described. If you have several inflated blanks, it's even easier. One ball will be a blade, and with the help of the second we will create a hilt for the sword. To do this, we bind it in a circle and twist it. Then we put on the first ball and twist it several times. We get two loops, which will create together with the first workpiece a sword. You can add a helmet to the head and a shield in the other hand. Your warrior is ready.

You can create not only a sword from the balls "sausages", but also the equipment of a knight or an astronaut. True, this will take a lot of time and help the entire family. But how happy the child is when he is put on such a carnival costume! He even has to walk like a real astronaut or a diver, rolling from one foot to the other.
