Supplies
Bowl
Food Coloring or Paint
Dish Soap
Straw
Watercolor Paper or Print Paper
Baking Sheet
Water (2-4 Tablespoons)
Steps 1. Place Bowl or bowls on a baking sheet
2. Add a little water
3. Add a 5+ drops of food coloring
4. Add a few tablespoons or squirts of dish soap
5. Use your straw to mix it together then blow bubbles in the bowl
6. Once the bubbles are higher than the top of the bowl, quickly place your paper on top, and smash the bubbles down to the rim of the bowl, hold it for a few seconds then take it off to reveal your print
Adaptions
If you are worried about children drinking the bubbles, you can just have them stir it to create bubbles, or try this with chocolate milk.. it might work
Extensions
Go outside and blow bubbles, try to create giant ones!
Make drawings of fish with sharpies and place the bubble prints over them
Use bowls with different colors and layer the bubble prints
Artists/Art
Hedy Yang Ceramics, Bubbles (she uses bubbles to decorate her ceramics)
Bubbles, Sir John Everett Millais
Books
Bubble Bubble, Mercer Mayer
Strega Nona Takes a Vacation, Tomie de Paola
Homework
Make drawings over the top of the bubbles (fish swimming in them) or use the bubble prints as texture in a drawing
Tips
Larger bubbles dont print well because wherever the bubble is it is blank. Smaller bubbles work best. You can use acrylic or tempera paint for these but the colors wont be as bright, especially if you use tempera.
