The Music Balloon Speaker is an Adorable Way to Listen to Tunes

— September 13, 2013 — Tech

This speaker is easily attached to a number of music players. Phones, iPods and MP3 players are all compatible as long as they have a 35mm jack. This player will broadcast your songs, and because of its design, the music will effortlessly glide through the air.

The most interesting feature of this speaker is its aesthetic. It looks like a balloon or a scoop of ice cream. As a result of its original look, people will stop you in order to try to figure out what you are listening to.

The Music Balloon Speaker is the perfect way to share your favorite songs with the people around you.
