- Each person ordering a balloon should fill out an order card with the name, address, and phone number of the balloon recipient, and the seller's name.
- Leave a space on the other side of the card for a message from the sender to the recipient.
- The customer then pays for the balloon and returns the card to the seller.
- Collect all the cards several days before Valentine's Day and group them by geographic areas.
- Items needed:
- Balloons
- Ribbon
- Helium tank
- Time required: 2 hours for blowing up balloons - 1 hour for delivery
