Sometimes, if I know I want to arrive to an event wearing gloves but that I don't want to wear them while making balloons, I make a show out of removing my gloves by wearing growing gloves. I'm sure you've seen these. One of the gloves is a normal white glove, but the other is really long. As I slowly pull it off, it seems as though it will never end. And the fabric changes from striped to polka dot, etc. The kids think this is hysterical. The only problem is for somebody like me who doesn't have massive arms is that the hidden long glove is very bulky under my costume, so I need to be wearing something a little baggy. Daytona Magic carries these for under $20, and I'm sure you can find them elsewhere. I got mine for a few bucks on Ebay.
