Paint by Bubbles
Soap bubbles burst to create splashes of color!
To make up a batch of bubble paint
mix;
2 tablespoons Tempera paint - any color
1 tablespoon clear dishwashing soap
1 cup of water
Combine ingredients in a sealable container, place lid on and shake to
mix. Pour mixture into a shallow pan. Stick one end of a straw into the
mixture and blow bubbles (be sure children do not suck the liquid in through the
straw). When large bubbles form in the shallow pan, carefully remove the straw
and lay a sheet of white paper on top of the bubbles. As the bubbles break, they
will leave color bursts. Lay to dry and add more designs with markers if you like.
