Notes:
Anytime you’re creating and presenting anything interesting to your child, they are learning! Either from using their senses or their imagination, or even a combination of both!
Benefits:
Playing with bubbles provides many good opportunities for development. As your child grows talk about the bubbles being; big, small, wet, slimy and how they are moving; fast, slow etc. Your child will enjoy playing with foam and see it transform from a liquid. Allow the fun and excitement to guide their curiosity and learning.
Can you imagine what a toddler is thinking when they see a huge pile of bubbles appear? They are probably wondering why the bubbles feel light as air, what causes bubbles to pop, and learning a bit about cause and effect at the same time!
Ways to adapt:
Add a straw to the mixture and blow, children will love seeing towers and the bubbles grow.
