You can’t have a party without balloons, and ironically, as many parties as we throw, balloons are always the last thing we think of. Nothing makes a kid happier than the site of colorfully designed floating balloons, and my kids are no exception. Thankfully, after discovering Balloon Time helium tanks a few years ago, we don’t have to run out to the store to pick up balloons. Have you ever done that? Sitting in the car with 20+ balloons can be a mess, and if you need to bring your kiddos along with you then you can end up in a dangerous no-rear-view-mirror situation. Seriously. Balloon Time is a life and time saver!
My favorite place to pick up a Balloon Time helium tank is typically Michael’s since you can use the internet coupons on those, but a few weeks ago I found a great deal at BJs for a jumbo helium tank for just $24.99. This included a handful of balloons and ribbon, plus a big helium tank that will last us for at least 2, if not more, parties.
The best part about keeping a helium tank handy at home is for those little moments. Surprising my daughter last week with some fun underwater themed balloons at our last BBQ was fun. All the kids attacked the balloons as they saw them coming down the patio to be set up for the BBQ. My 4 year old said, “now it’s a REAL party because we have balloons” and I totally agree with her!
Even after blowing up quite a few balloons at our BBQ, we still have enough helium left over for our next party. Don’t get caught without balloons again! Keep a tank of helium (in a cool room) on hand- for the big moments and the little moments in life!

I love balloons at parties! They make everything look so festive and bright. And true to form, balloons make even the adults crack a smile.
These balloons are so cute. It would come in handy having a helium tank during the summer-my son loves balloons!
What kid doesn’t love balloons?!?! Having the option of using them to turn an ordinary bbq into something special is so great! I’ll be saving my coupons for sure!
That would certainly make a birthday party extra fun!
I would have never thought of getting our own tank. My kids, like all kids, love balloons. They would flip if we did this.
