You will need:

Balloons,

Small chocolate treats or small gift,

2 Different Coloured Washable Paints,

PVA Glue,

String.

Method:

Mix each coloured paint with equal parts PVA glue separately and mix until combined.

Cut 4 long lengths of string.

Dip 2 lengths of string into each each of the two pots of paint/glue until covered.

Pop a chocolate treat or small gift inside a balloon, and blow the balloon up, but not too big.

Pick a piece of the string and begin to wind around the balloon. Then take a string from the second pot and do the same.

Repeat with the final two lengths of string until you have closed off the gaps, until you have a ,net' like appearance.

Leave to dry overnight.

Once dry, pop the balloon and pull through the hole.

Hey Presto!
