The most abundant element is hydrogen and deep inside the sun, it is converted into helium. Helium makes your voice go funny by altering the length of soundwaves, it works with wind instruments the same as with your voice.

A helium filled balloon can float very high up into the atmosphere, however, it cannot float up into outer space. The air in Earth's atmosphere gets thinner the higher up you go. The balloon can only rise up until the atmosphere surrounding it has the same weight as the helium in the balloon. This happens at about a height of 20 miles (32 kilometers) above Earth's surface. So, this is as far as a helium balloon can rise. Outer space starts somewhere around 600 miles (960 kilometers) above Earth's surface.

The simplest element is hydrogen, and it is converted into helium in stars (including the sun) as a result of nuclear fusion.

That's not where we get the helium that goes into balloons, though. That helium comes from the radioactive decay of heavier elements -- not the fusion of hydrogen.

Hydrogen is the simplest element. It is a proton and an electron.
It is fused into Helium in stars, like the sun.

The simplest element is Hydrogen .. 1 proton and 1 electron.
Helium does not form from normal hydrogen it is found in the air and is extracted from air at great cost.
Helium is formed in suns by the fusion of heavy hydrogen atoms (Deuterium) (1 Proton, 1 Neutron and 1 electron)

Mathew and emucompho are right. you can purchased it where you buy party supplies and balloons.
but be carefull with it. when you inhale the stuff, you are displacing the oxygen you normally breath with another gas. you may pass out. it's not recommended that people inhale it.
