Radio Lollipop Gold Coast were lucky to have the very talented Balloon Kings, Kane and Canice, visit on the 26th of February to share their highly tuned balloon skills with the children. Balloon King Kane fascinated the children with his amazing balloon making talents, turning them into dinosaurs, alien octopuses, fairy wings, buccaneer swords and anything else the children could imagine. Very cleverly, he would twist and turn the balloons until we all thought they would pop, but then a balloon animal would appear before our very eyes!

Walking through the wards, Kane had the children following him like the Pied Piper. Though instead his pipe were his balloons and his mesmerising music was his ability to bring joy, smiles and merriment to one and all. Who ever knew balloon making could be so much fun? Kane and Canice also spent some time bedside with some of the children who were unable to make it down to the playroom, it was great to see their smiles and know that no one missed out.

A massive thank you to both Kane and Canice for organising this fantastic visit for the children. Rumour has it that the Balloon Kings will be a regular visitor for Radio Lollipop over the coming year, so
lookout for Kane and the balloon gang on the Gold Coast!
