A fun, easy way to play with your children and be a little "Crafty" at the same time.

Difficulty: Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • White cardstock cut to 5" x 4 ½"
  • Shallow pan ie 9" x 13" casserole dish
  • Dish soap
  • Food coloring
  • Water
  • Straw
  • Wire baking rack (opt)
  1. Step 1

    Put a few drops of dish soap and your favorite color/colors of food coloring in the pan and then add about an inch of water.

  2. Step 2

    Now use the straw to blow bubbles into the pan keep going until the bubbles are higher than the pan. (Make sure not to suck up!)

  3. Step 3

    Now place your paper flat over the bubbles and slowly go down. As the bubbles pop they leave colored bubble marks on your paper! Repeat as much as you want to get your perfect bubble paper creation!

Tips & Warnings
  • Printer paper will absorb the colors so it is best to use cardstock.
  • You can always use your bubble paper as the background for a card, picture etc.
