balloons
Floating party decorations
Balloons are inflatable bags, typically rubber or plastic, filled with air or gas.
Children's party balloons hold air; helium balloons float.
Hot-air balloons carry passengers in baskets beneath enormous fabric envelopes.
A speech balloon in comics contains dialogue.
