Several years ago I remember one of the teachers I worked with made this activity for our class of 4 to 5 year olds.
The children loved blowing the long bubble worms and we had competitions to see who could blow the longest worm.
Yesterday, I decided to let Hamish try.
It took less than 5 minutes to set up and kept him busy for a hood half an hour.
🌟It is good to note though that kids tend to suck back, so watch small children when doing this activity.
You will need:
- An old water bottle
- Sharp knife
- Sock
- Dishwashing liquid
- Container
Method:
- Cut the bottom off of the water bottle.
- Place a sock over the open end.
- Pour some dishwashing liquid into a container with a little water.
How to play:
Dip the bottle, sock end first, into the water to get wet and soapy.
Let your child blow.
This will form a long bubble snake out of the sock.
