ABSTRACT:
A balloon toy apparatus contains a lighter-than-air gas, causing it to rise. Wetting the toy with a controlled amount of a volatile liquid, such as water ejected from a water pistol, overcomes the tendency to rise and results in the toy descending or floating at or near neutral buoyancy. Evaporation of the liquid reestablishes the tendency to rise.
