Hi! My name is Teri Lynne and I'm here on behalf of Expert Village. In this segment we are going to show you how to blow up a balloon, mime style. So your going to choose your balloon. Your shape, your size. I'm going to use a round balloon. I'm going to give it a nice good stretch first. Make sure that the rubber is nice and stretched out. Everything is about preparation with mime. So before you do anything, make it seem like its a really big event. So you really prime yourself up for blowing up this balloon. When you're blowing the air into the balloon, use your whole body to show the air moving in. Tie it. If you really want to get specific, you can get, take some string and tie it on. Now I know I'm not really full of helium, but I've some how blown up a helium balloon here. That is how you do a mime balloon, here on Expert Village.
