Bubble Bowl

One of the activities I had planned for preschool didn't go over so well.


I wanted to blow bubbles on the table, spreading the solution along the surface and letting them make bubbles with straws.


But the floor isn't completely level, so the solution kept pooling or spreading thin. You could make bubbles but it took more patience than these three-year-olds possessed.


So later on I just gave the leftover solution to Liam and Dash in a couple bowls and let them make bubbles that way.


Success was much easier to achieve. And such big bubble piles too!


Grey happily snacked on his blueberries and watched.


But despite the fact that we kept reminding ourselves NOT to slurp through our straws, only blow, accidents happen. they each had a minor mistake that was easily (and excitedly) remedied through gargling water. Then Dash had a game-ending gulp of the stuff and hasn't wanted much to do with bubbles since. At least we had fun in the moment?
