- Leave a size figures length gap and twist again.
- Rip off the rest of the balloon and tie a knot to keep twisted section of the balloon inflated.
- Take your other white twisting balloon and inflate it and wrap it around the two pinch twists on your original white twisting balloon
- To make a body, measure up the length of the second balloon beside the first one and twist where they measure up and rip the rest of the balloon off. Tie a knot where the twist is to keep the balloon inflated.

- Get your red twisting balloon and make two pinch twists at the top.
- Bend the balloon in half and twist it on to the other end of the balloon to make a circle.
- Take the rest of the balloon and measure it up against the circle and put two pinch twists where it measures up.
- Deflate the left over bit of the balloon and tie the latex around the balloon so it is almost invisible.
- Attach the white head to the white body, do so by tying the balloon tie from the head to the body.
- Take the balloon tie from the bottom of the white body and wrap it into one of the two pinch twists on the red circle.
- Put one of the white arms through the red circle and then put the white head through the same side of the circle.
- Put the other white arm through the other side of the red circle.
