Is there a combination of products that work best? (Try things such as cornstarch or other brands of dishwashing liquid.) Experiment with making your own bubble solution.Try using just your hand(s) as a bubble blower.Design and build your own bubble blower.The soap film is elastic and can stretch which is why you can see the edges of the large bubble moving around in the air and why you can see the soap film move when you blow it on your bubble maker.Įven more activities to inspire creativity and critical thinking for various ages: What is a bubble? A bubble is a thin film of soap and water stretched around air. How are they the same? How are they different? What’s Going On: Just holding the bubble maker in the air should be work! Question to Spark More Curiosity & Critical Thinking:Ĭompare the bubbles you made with your straw and shallow dish to the large bubbles you blew outside. – If there’s a breeze outside, you don’t even need to blow the bubble. – Once you like the size of your large bubble, you can put the two straws together to make it come off. Once we lifted it out of the container, we pulled the straws apart slowly. It also helped to have the straws together in the solution. – Lifting the bubble maker out of the solution slowly is important. When you are done playing with your bubble blower, look around your house or yard for other materials to try to blow bubbles with. When you notice a thin sheet of soap film between your straws, blow slowly and create a large bubble! What do these bubbles look like?Ĩ. Dip your bubble blower into the bubble solution. Pull the straws to each side so you create a rectangle.ħ. Thread two straws onto the string and tie the ends of the string together to make a loop. Make your own bubble blower using string and 2 straws: Cut a piece of string about 3 feet long. Look around your pile of bubbles and see what different shapes you can discover.ĥ. Now it’s time to blow some giant bubbles! Bring your large container of bubble solution outside.Ħ. Continue blowing as many bubbles as you want.Does it change the shape of the first bubble? What else do you notice? Try blowing another bubble against your first bubble.Put a straw into the bubble solution and blow to create a bubble.Fill up a shallow container with bubble solution.You can use the solution right away or even wait a day or so for it to really work well! any other items to experiment blowing bubbles with (berry basket, paper towel tube etc.).1 piece of string (about 30-36 inches long).large container to hold bubble solution.bubble solution (recipe below if making your own).Welcome to another Science Invitation Saturday where we explore science for kids! Last week we made reflecting rainbows using a CD and flashlight. This week are going to experiment with bubbles! Materials:
