Squeeze Poppers Happy Birthday Confetti Cannon

A few years back, my husband started a "confetti" tradition at birthday parties - at some unknown time (sometimes while we're singing Happy Birthday, sometimes during presents, but always completely randomly) he pops off a confetti gun. It's turned into a joke and a really fun tradition for our kids!Well yesterday, it was my husband's birthday - so of course we had to surprise him with some confetti! I grabbed these specifically because they looked easy to set off (I wanted our kids to be able to pop them & a lot of confetti guns are hard to set off).These are FANTASTIC for little hands!! They are super simple - you inflate the bottom of the balloon (with the provided straw) and then when you're ready, you simply squeeze the balloon and the confetti pops out of the top (leaving you with a fully in-tact balloon, shaped like a mini baseball bat). The end of the balloon is actually tucked inside of itself & lightly sealed, so when you squeeze it, the air forces the balloon to fully expand and the seal breaks, releasing the confetti.These do not have a ton of confetti and the pieces are on the smaller side, but they still have a great effect when you set several off at the same time (we hit my husband with 4 all at once and it was perfect).The package states that the pieces are 100% biodegradable - which is amazing and allowed us to set these off in our backyard, without having to worry about any sort of clean up!Other, bigger confetti cannons will give you a better "pop" and bigger shower of confetti, but for little hands to operate - these are fantastic!!
