The other day Niko came home from school and announced that at the young age of 8, he has found his life's passion, and knows exactly what he wants to be when he grows up! A balloon animal sculptor. Yeah, one of those guys at kids' parties, at the farmers' market, wandering around street fairs, who twists latex balloons into the "shapes" of animals.
Here's Niko explaining some of his work:
I
don't want to stifle his creativity - or even a career in the arts, but
let's face it: balloon animals are one step above miming!
The artist with some of his creations - that's another hippo hanging on the door handle...
That's "Funny Bob"
I
suppose if he does pursue the whole "making balloon animals for a
living" goal, there's one thing I won't need to worry about: teenage
pregnancy. 'Cause the kidmaking animals from balloons, sure ain't making time!
