(father, aquarium) I will try father in the sentence to see if it fits. That sounds like a good sentence, but just to be sure I will also try aquarium. That doesn’t make any sense.

Make a Hot Air Balloon You can make your own miniature hot air balloon. You will need flour, water, a balloon, newspaper strips, paint, string, and a paper cup. First, blow up the balloon. Next, mix one up of flour with one cup of water. Dip the newspaper strips into the flour paste. Then, cover the balloon with the wet strips of newspaper. Let it dry for a day or two. When the strips are completely dry, pop the balloon. Then paint the surface to look like a hot air balloon. Tie the paper cup to the balloon to make the basket. Finally, attack a string to the top of the balloon, hang it in your room, and imagine flying through the sky in a beautiful balloon. T137
