Bubble Painting Activity

Here is an easy and fun craft for outside!

Materials

  • Bubble Mix

  • Bubble Wands

  • Food Coloring

  • Paper

  • Bowls

Instructions

  1. Pour 1 tablespoon of bubble mix into a small, shallow bowl.

  2. Add a few drops of food coloring to the bubble mix and stir well.

  3. Place your bubble wand in the coloured bubble mix, remove and blow bubbles towards your paper.

  4. As bubbles hit the paper and pop, they will leave interesting patterns. Repeat with other colours as desired.

Tips

  1. Caution: Food coloring will stain surfaces and clothing. Be sure to protect both! Best as an outdoor activity.

  2. This activity can be frustrating on a windy day - as the wind makes it hard to get the bubbles to hit the target paper!

  3. You can use any bubble mix from the store for this (the little plastic bottles with wands in the lid work fine)

For older children, you could do some colour theory and mix colours with the popping bubbles, yellow and blue create… green!
