Toysmith Group donated a number of balloon-powered cars and balloon-powered helicopters for children to build and take home with them for xUmp.com’s August science event, which took place on August 22nd at xUmp’s warehouse location in Signal Hill, CA. Xump.com is one of the largest online retailers specializing in science supplies and toys, shipping to over 200,000 customers in 105 countries worldwide.

“Toysmith's donation was perfect for our event,” noted Ana Sanchez, Operations Manager of xUmp.com. “We wanted to show the participants how you could use observation and analysis to figure out how to make balloon objects work. Something as simple as playing with balloons really encouraged the children to approach their use of the toys in a scientific way.” The event focused on balloon physics—activities included building balloon-powered cars and helicopters, playing with rocket balloons, and observing a demonstration of a giant 36-inch balloon being blown up.
