Bubble foam is easy to make, clean to play with, and super fun!
Materials:
- Tear-free bubble bath
- Mixer- hand mixer | whisk | stand mixer
- Large shallow bin
- Liquid watercolor
- Big bowl
- Kitchen utensils
Instructions:
Add 2 parts water with 1 part bubble bath into a big bowl- In our house, we usually use 1 cup water and 1/2 cup bubble bath. For color, add a few drops of liquid watercolor (if you’d like to use more than one color, divide the water and bubble bath into multiple batches). Now whip with a mixer until you’ve created stiff peaks (usually on high for 1 minute). Pour the foam into a large shallow bin and toss in some kitchen utensils such as bowls, spoons, a potato masher, a spatula, or whatever you have on hand!
Tip- If you notice the foam getting watery, use a whisk to help the bubbles return!
