Anis and Sofia use buckets full of balls
While searching the shed, Sofia finds a stack of paper, and realises that hitting the balloon with a new sheet every time while she holds the entire stack in one hand may be the quickest and easiest method.
Anis has the same idea, filling a pot with coloured balls. Sofia abandons the paper and finds a bucket that she fills with more coloured balls.
The team starts a very successful rally; however, the balloon eventually travels a bit too far from the net, forcing them to start over, and each subsequent attempt fails more quickly.
When the two finally get a good rally going near the end of their time, one of Anis' objects pops the balloon after they reach 23 (out of 25) hits, and they are unable to complete the task.
However, since the two manage the longest rally, they win the task.
