Helium, due to its non inflammability and lightness, it s used for filling ballons.

In IMD, Hydrogen gas is used to fill a balloon. The He may be for other purposes. Here, the purpose is not mentioned.

It is lighter than air and low density, so it always tries to be in the upper atmosphere.

Helium is the highest gas.

"Balloons cane be filled with any Air".

Here, You want to specify it as "Floating Balloons".

Because helium never gets fire and it can fly easily.

Helium is lighter than air and it's used to make the balloon float.

ya and also we don't want our kids crying in case the balloon bursts or is set on fire party will stop there itself only.

So helium is a safer option.
Its also an inert and a noble gas.

It is odourless, colourless, monatomic gas with very low chemical reactivity.

The six noble gases that occur naturally are:

Helium (He), neon (Ne), argon (Ar), krypton (Kr), xenon (Xe), and the radioactive radon (Rn).

This question should say "Floating balloons are filled with", if its just "balloons" it can be filled with anything.

Well, helium is a lighter and inflammable (non combustible) gas, hence used in filling the air balloons.
