The lizard and ladybug just found Noodle and Doodle
(on the Sprout channel).
We don't actually get the channel from our local cable provider.
We only get a few of the episodes 'on demand'...but the kids love it.
Each show there is a craft.
Their favorite craft has been the 'super duper bubble blower'.
So that's what I made this past weekend.
Here's what you'll need.
Straws
Tape
Bowl (for bubble solution)
*Bubble Solution*
1/2 cup dish soap
4 cups water
2 tablespoons glycerine
4 cups water
2 tablespoons glycerine
Gather your straws and tape them together.
Mix your bubble solution.
You can figure out the rest :)
The original craft idea was to add paint to the bubble solution.
Then blow the bubbles onto paper...making bubble art.
It's a great idea (and we'll probably do that) but they just wanted bubbles.
I was able to find the liquid glycerine at Wal-Mart by the pharmacy.
It was ~$3 for a 4oz bottle.
Great deal considering you use so little of it and it makes great bubbles.
Yesterday, I bought all of my kid friendly bubble 'swords'
for the Pirates & Polka Dots party.
I plan on having a 'bubble refill' station
(thanks to Kim at Party Frosting for directing me to this idea from Come Together Kids)
All that glycerine will come in handy!!

Cool! My kids love bubbles! And the refil station is a fantastic idea! What fun!
Love the refill idea. I had thought about making a bubble station for my daughters upcoming bday, but I have not been able to find cute bottles with a wide enough opening for a homemade wand.
