Contact_FullName: sharon Contact_Email: samciuffo@optonline.net date:: 09/04/03 Area: Bubbles-Art Idea: When my class does our Bubble unit, we make a Bubble Book. Each child draws a picture of what their magic bubble turned into or looks like ( a car, a cloud etc...). I write on the bottom of each drawing "My magic bubble turned into a ...". Then I laminate the pages and make it into a book. We send it home with each child for 2 days to share with their families. A notebook also goes home with the Bubble book so that parents can write to our class what they thought of the book. After all the children have taken the book home the Bubble book becomes part of our class library.

When dry I glue a blue piece of construction paper with the center cut out onto there wax paper creation. Cut the excess around the edge and hand in window...you have very pretty colored blue colored bubbles in your windows! Contact_FullName: Jodi Contact_Email: MisssJodi@MissJodisLearningGarden.com date:: 03-26-02 Area: Bubble Art Idea: Easy Beautiful Bubbles: Iridescent cellophane makes for awesome, no hassle bubbles. Simply cut into circles, and let the kids glue them to plain paper, or outdoor scenes. Crumpling the cellophane is not only fun, but a great auditory and sensory activity, and makes the finished craft look 3-D!
Colorful Bubble Painting! Pour a small amount of bubble solution into several cups. Add 4-5 drops of food coloring to each cup (you need a good amount of coloring in the solution). Dip bubble wands into the colorful solutions and blow bubbles onto plain white paper. Allow the bubbles to settle and burst on their own. When dry, you will have beautiful note paper!
Get out those bubbles, and make bubble prints on paper. In a margarine container mix 1/3 tempra paint, or food coloring with 2/3 liquid dishwashing detergent and a small amount of water. Have the children blow with a straw in the solution until the bubbles rise over the top of the container (don't forget to poke a pin hole in the straw so the kids wont suck up the solution) then have them place a piece of paper over the top of the solution and move it around until they have bubble prints on paper. 5-26-98 Name: Pat E-Mail: Pattypre@aol.com Bubble blowing - purple colored liquid soap (or other color according to the season) in a eye dropper bottle (you might water this down), plastic straws, a small pitcher, a small sponge and a small bowl for water all on a tray. With the pitcher, the child child fills the bowl with water, adds one dropper full of soap into the bowl, selects a straw and then blows. Make sure the child removes everything from the tray except the bowl of soapy water. This is sort of like blowing bubbles into a glass of milk but allow the child to have the bubbles overflow from the dish onto the tray. The more they blow, the more to clean up but children love doing this and it is great for oral motor development (which affects articulation skills).
Mix dish detergent, water, and tempura paint in three bowls. Make one bowl red, and one blue. Have the children dip bubble blowing sticks in the bowls and they will blow the blue and red bubbles on a white sheet of paper. It looks neat to see all different creations.
Recipe: 1/4 cup of dishwashing detergent 1/2 cup water 1 teaspoon of sugar food coloring of any choice Preparation: 1. Prepare bubble mixture and divide into small paper cups. 2. Mix a different color of food coloring into each cup. 3. to make a bubble wands, bend the end of pipe cleaners to form circles and twist to secure it. 4. Use white paper only To do the job: Have the children stand above or slightly to the side of the paper and have them gently blow as soon and the bubble pops the bubble will appear as the color of the solution. I don't know who likes this art project more me or the kids. I like to get a white roll of paper and roll it across the table so all the children can create the bubble picture together. 8-26-98 Name: Dawn E-Mail: dswan@techheadnet.com Take a plastic container like a yogurt container with a lid. You make two holes on top. One you insert a straw and the other is left open. You put bubble solution in the cup and cover. Let the children blow through the straw and watch the bubbles pour out over the top of the cup and down the sides. This is a wonderful rainy day or outside activity. Have fun with it. Name: Cindy E-Mail: jonanton@newulmtel.net bubble prints Materials needed are white construction paper, 2 or 3 kitchen Dixie cups, straws, and tempera paint (powdered mixed with water so it's kind of runny works best). Pour paint mixture into cups. Put straw into each cup, have child take turns blowing the mixture until bubbles are ready to go over edges. Gently lay paper on top of cups, when bubbles have popped, take paper off. The bubble designs will be left on the paper. Daylene Bubble Wrap Prints Materials: Bubble wrap packing material, paint, brushes, lots of paper 1. Tape the bubble wrap securely to the table. You will want enough bubble wrap to cover your entire table. 2. Provide different colors of paint and brushes. Tell the children to paint any color or design on the bubble wrap that they want. 3. When they are done painting, show them how to make a print by pressing a piece of paper down on top of their creation. The more paint and colors there are on the bubble wrap, the more interesting the designs get. |
