Bubble Blast
Make Some Bubbles!

Beginner

Have fun talking about bubbles as you blow them.

Tip:  Talk about how bubbles are wet, slimy, curvy, big, small, circle-shaped. Talk about how bubbles move, drift, float, fly, dive, dance, dip, pop, crash, splash, and break.

Intermediate

Through bubble play, talk about different ways to make bubbles.

Tip:  What makes the best bubbles? Blowing them yourself, waving the bubble wand, or is the wind strong enough?

​

Experienced

Experiment with different bubble wands and techniques.

Tip: Does the shape of the bubble wand create different sized bubbles? Use household items to create your own bubble wand (pipe cleaner, container lid, soft plastic drink bottles cut with the help of an adult).

Why is this important?

 

Talking about bubble play helps develop children’s vocabulary, science literacy, and fine motor skills.
