Body Part Bubble Pop

Blowing bubbles is a regular activity at our house.  Try this simple variation for something new!

1)  Blow bubbles and challenge your child to use different body parts to pop the bubbles.

Popping bubbles with feet, knees, elbows, heads, and noses is a fun way to review body parts!

Bubble Wrap Painting

This is a great first printmaking experience (even my two-year old could do it)!

You need:
Bubble wrap
Tape
Box
Paint (we used washable!)
Paintbrush
Paper
1)  Tape a sheet of bubble wrap to the top of a box (if you would like to keep it to use again) or on top of a table.

2)  Paint the bubble wrap.

3)  Place a sheet of paper over the top of the bubble wrap.  Press lightly.

4)  Peel off the bubble wrap print!  If you want to add a second color, allow both the paper and bubble wrap to dry.  Paint the second color on the bubble wrap, press the paper into it, and peel off!

We used it as wrapping paper for Princess's birthday presents!

Tasty Tuesday: Bubbles, Bubbles, Bubbles!

You'll either love this or hate it, but we had such a grand time!  Now, I don't normally allow my children to blow bubbles into their milk, but I decided it would be a fun, memorable thing to do every once in a while!  I even participated!

You need:
Milk
Straw
Cup
I don't think you really need directions!  All three of my girls caught on pretty quickly!  Just blow bubbles into your milk! 

I did make sure to let them know this was a special occasion (and it isn't polite to blow bubbles in your milk at other times)!
