2. blow up the balloon and tie it. then rub it really fast through your hair for about 10 seconds. this will add a static charge.
3. slowly bring the balloon near the ghost, and the ghost will begin to rise toward the balloon. (our ghost “arms” actually reached toward the balloon as we got it near.) if the balloon is charged enough, the ghost will rise and float right up to the balloon, even when it is several inches away. with a little practice, you can get the ghost to rise, float, and even dance around.
tip: the easiest way to make the ghost rise without it sticking to the balloon
