Frozen Bubble Fun for Kids
Both of our children enjoyed our bubble experiment. They were ecstatic to watch the bubbles freeze. Even the snowflakes stuck to them! Seriously, the next time the temperatures drop in your area, brave the cold and go blow some bubbles with your kids! Frozen bubbles are so much fun!
If you have trouble getting your bubbles to freeze, here are a few helpful tips:
- Make sure your bubble solution is cold. Taking it from inside the warm house to outside freezing temps can cause it to take longer to freeze as bubbles.
- Instead of blowing into your bubble, try waving your bubble wand. Sometimes your warm breathe can make it difficult for your bubbles to freeze.
- Blow bubbles in an area sheltered from the wind.
- Larger bubbles can take longer to freeze than smaller bubbles.
- Be patient and persistent.
