Balloons are popularly used at festivals, birthday parties, and many other fun events. But blowing bubbles isn’t so much fun, because you have to have two good lungs or a specialized pump, not to mention it takes time and patience. Whether you just need one balloon or a hundred for decoration or a science experiment, there are always different ways to make blowing bubbles easier – even fun!
Steps
Blow bubbles with your mouth
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/6/6d/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-1-Version-9.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-1-Version-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/6/6d/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-1- Version-9.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-1-Version-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Stretch the bubble in all directions. If you stretch the balloon by hand before blowing it, blowing it will become a lot easier. The rubber material of the balloon will expand and the resistance to blowing will be significantly reduced. [1] X Research Source
- Stretch the bubble in all directions but be careful not to tear the rubber. Remember not to stretch the bubble too much, or it will explode when you blow. Stretching several times in different positions is satisfactory.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/b/bf/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-2-Version-9.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-2-Version-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/b/bf/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-2- Version-9.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-2-Version-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Use your thumb and index finger to pull the nozzle of the balloon. This step will help keep the balloon steady as you blow. Hold the nozzle of the balloon at a position about 1 cm from the mouth of the nozzle. The index finger should be on top and the thumb below.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/ab/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-3-Version-9.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-3-Version-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/ab/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-3- Version-9.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-3-Version-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Take a deep breath and start blowing bubbles. Use your lips to form a closed circle around the spout of the bubble. Lips should be slightly past the mouth of the nozzle and use the index finger and thumb to press on the nozzle.
Push air from the lungs into the balloon. This move is similar to when you inflate your cheeks, but the air will go into the bubble and the cheeks are relaxed.
- Try to keep your lips close to the nozzle of the bubble while you blow. The cheeks will contain some air but not inflate, but the balloon is the place to store the air!
- Imagine how people blow a trumpet: Maintain proper lip position or facial tension, especially when your lungs are weak or you have trouble blowing bubbles.
- Close your lips around the bubble nozzle to keep the pressure in.
Try to overcome the initial resistance. For reasons that have more to do with science than you might think, [2] X The source of the first blow to the bubble is always subjected to the strongest resistance. [3] X Research Source But the bubble will expand gradually after the initial resistance. It takes some time for some people to get used to this, so keep blowing until the bubbles inflate, and use that experience to blow up the next ones.
- If you are still having trouble blowing after the initial attempt, lengthen the portion of the bubble nozzle during a second blow.
- If you have trouble, lengthen the nozzle of the balloon, then use your thumb and index finger to seal around the mouth of the nozzle while blowing.
Squeeze the bubble hose if you need a break. If you need a break while blowing, seal the nozzle with your thumb and forefinger. Then, let go of your hand once you’ve put the balloon back in your mouth.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a4/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-7-Version-9.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-7-Version-9.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/a4/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-7- Version-9.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-7-Version-9.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Stop blowing before the bubble burst. When you feel the bubble no longer expand significantly, the blowing process is then complete. If the hose inflates quite large, you have inflated the balloon too much and need to let some air out until the hose deflates.
Tighten the bubble nozzle. When the bubble begins to resist expansion, that’s when you need to knot the bubble. Now the bubble has been blown. You will continue to blow the next fruit!
- Use your middle and index fingers to hold the base of the bubble nozzle.
- Stretch the hose and wrap it around your index finger and thumb.
- Pass the spout through the circle you just made and tie the knot while you simultaneously pull out your finger.
Blow bubbles with a pump
Attach the bubble nozzle to the pump hose nozzle. The pump nozzle must have a groove to firmly adhere to the mouth of the bubble nozzle.
Start pumping. For hand-held pumps, pull out the pump lever and press in. For the foot pump, step on the pedal and release. There is no need to stretch the balloon before inflating.
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/8/8a/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-11-Version-8.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-11-Version-8.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/8/8a/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-11- Version-8.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-11-Version-8.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Tighten the bubble nozzle after pumping is complete. Again, check out the wikiHow tutorial!
Use a helium tank
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/c/ce/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-12-Version-6.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-12-Version-6.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/c/ce/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-12- Version-6.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-12-Version-6.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Attach the pump nozzle to the helium tank. The pump nozzle is a metal pipe with a thread at one end and the connection to the object to be pumped at the other end. Fasten the pump nozzle to the threaded mouth on the top of the helium tank. [4] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/1/18/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-13-Version-6.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up- a-Balloon-Step-13-Version-6.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/1/18/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-13- Version-6.jpg/v4-728px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-13-Version-6.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight” :410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser-output”></div>”}
Attach the correct type of adapter to the pump nozzle. Most pump nozzles are sold with two conical plastic adapters. Small type used to inflate glass bubbles; large type used to inflate rubber bubbles. Attach a suitable adapter type to the pump nozzle. [5] X Research Sources
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/0/0b/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-14.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon- Step-14.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/0/0b/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-14.jpg/v4-728px-Blow- Up-a-Balloon-Step-14.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Open valve. Turn the handle on the helium tank counterclockwise to open the valve and discharge helium into the pump nozzle. You should hear a “puff” sound when the valve is opened, but if there is a continuous hissing sound, there is a leak. Close the valve and contact the gas cylinder supplier. [6] X Research Sources
Connect the bubble to the adapter. Insert the bubble nozzle into the adapter deep enough to provide the right seal. Use your thumb and index finger to squeeze around the mouth of the bubble nozzle to make sure it’s airtight. [7] X Research Sources
Click on the top of the switch. Use the finger holding the mouth of the bubble to gently press the switch tip. This will open the helium gas into the balloon. Stop pressing when the bubble is tight enough. [8] X Research Sources
- Be careful as helium can inflate bubbles very quickly. Don’t be surprised if you pop a few balloons when you’re first learning to inflate with a helium tank!
Button the bubble. With a rubber balloon, you’ll tie the knot the way you usually do: make a circle around two fingers, then pass the mouth of the bubble nozzle through that circle and tie the knot. However, most glass bubbles have a self-closing mechanism, so all you need to do is squeeze the mouth to refill. [9] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/5/53/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-18.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon- Step-18.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/5/53/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-18.jpg/v4-728px-Blow- Up-a-Balloon-Step-18.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Close the valve on the helium tank. Once the balloon is inflated, follow the procedure below to return the helium tank to a safe standby state: [10] X Research Source
- Close the valve on the top of the jar (by turning it clockwise).
- Press on the switch to release the remaining helium in the pump nozzle.
- Unscrew the adapter and unscrew the pump nozzle.
Conduct science experiments
Measure two tablespoons of baking soda into an unblown balloon. Insert the tip of the funnel into the mouth of the bubble nozzle to make it easier to pour in the baking soda. Two tablespoons equals 30 grams. [11] X Research Source
Pour 120 ml of vinegar into a small soda bottle. Use an empty bottle that has been cleaned and dried. Continue using the funnel to make it easier to pour the vinegar into the bottle (but remember to rinse the baking soda off first). [12] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/e/ea/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-21.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon- Step-21.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/e/ea/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-21.jpg/v4-728px-Blow- Up-a-Balloon-Step-21.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Cover the mouth of the bubble over the top of the bottle. Stretch the nozzle of the bubble to cover the top of the bottle tightly. Release the rest of the balloon freely so the baking soda doesn’t fall into the bottle. [13] X Research Source
{“smallUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images_en/thumb/a/a7/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-22.jpg/v4-460px-Blow-Up-a-Balloon- Step-22.jpg”,”bigUrl”:”https://www.wikihow.com/images/thumb/a/a7/Blow-Up-a-Balloon-Step-22.jpg/v4-728px-Blow- Up-a-Balloon-Step-22.jpg”,”smallWidth”:460,”smallHeight”:259,”bigWidth”:728,”bigHeight”:410,”licensing”:”<div class=”mw-parser -output”></div>”}
Let the baking soda fall into the bottle. Lift the belly of the bubble to the top of the bottle and pull it up slightly so that the baking soda falls directly into the bottle. Be careful not to pull so hard that the mouth of the bubble slips out of the bottle. [14] X Research Source
Observe the chemical reaction taking place. You can blow bubbles with baking soda and vinegar because carbon dioxide gas comes from a chemical reaction between these two ingredients. Kids love to watch blowing bubbles this way!
Advice
- Very large or very small bubbles will create very heavy initial resistance, so you will need two blows to get through this stage. The long, thin balloons used to create shapes would be difficult to blow.
- Sometimes you should gently bite the mouth of the balloon nozzle while blowing to keep the balloon in place.
- Consider buying a pump tube if you often have to blow bubbles. This tool is worth your investment. Store the pump tubing in a place that is easily accessible.
- If you need to blow a lot of bubbles at school or a similar situation, find a group of young children to assist you with this. Most kids this age love blowing bubbles and will be happy to help you!
Warning
- One may feel dizzy when blowing too many bubbles. If you feel dizzy, take a break to catch your breath.
- Remember, some people can’t blow bubbles because of health problems. If this is you, don’t try. Find a pump to inflate the balloons or ask someone stronger for help. Not everyone is healthy enough to blow bubbles.
- Don’t blow the bubble too tight. It will explode! You will soon know when the balloon is over inflated.
- Don’t blow too hard (a clear sign is “cheeks puff”) as this can increase pressure in the sinuses.
