Hot Air Balloon Time
As we soak in the sight of our Albuquerque sky filled with colorful hot air balloons, come create your own 16-piece puzzle hot air balloon design. We invite you to draw and color your image using pencil, color pencils, markers on a 4 x 6 puzzle. Afterward share it with someone, having fun taking it apart and putting the pieces together.
