Japanese Paper Balloon - Blue Whale Print ranging from new infrastructures toTraditional Japanese paper balloons like this one, called Kamifusen, have been loved by children since they emerged in the 1920s as a cheaper alternative to rubber balloons.

The thread can be attached to the ceiling with washi tape or white tacks. Ages 3+
