How To Make A Giant Bubble Wand?

By Sarah Sullivan


Admit it. When you were still a toddler before, you easily smiled and laughed at small things because you found it very amusing in your point of view. But perhaps even these days, you still smile at trivial things. You probably have observed it at some babies or maybe toddlers doing that kind of behaviour whenever they see some toys. It look so cute that you wanted to impress them more. Anyhow, this article surely will teach you on how to make big bubble wands.

Seeing bubbles floating in the air makes you stop for a moment and stare at it out of amazement. You cannot deny that those 3d circles can really enjoy especially whenever you are the one blowing it. But do you know that it could also have benefits for children in terms of learning. It helps those little kids to discover and develop their self-concept as they use and play with it.

Other individuals may see it as just nothing and a waste of time but regardless of that, it can also be very beneficial for toddlers and babies. Tracking and visual skills will certainly increase as they explore on those bubbles. When the translucent circles surrounds them, their eyes tend to follow those circles as if those vision are glued to it.

In addition, their gross motor and muscle movements as well as their balance, will surely improve. Because they kept on looking at those circles, it made their head and neck to move. Sometimes they might even use their hands to reach it as they explore. The activity would be fun to watch. Furthermore, why not try making your own giant bubbles and let them explore it. Below are the steps and guides for you on creating it.

First of all, you have to gather the materials that are needed for this project. What you will need are plastic straws, bubble solution, cotton string and a narrow container. For homemade bubble solution, you may either use one gallon of hot water gently mixing it together with one fourth cup of glycerine and one cup of dishwashing liquid. Or perhaps you may use the alternative ingredients which are 2 1/2 cups of water and one half cup of corn syrup and dishwashing liquid.

After making those, you may proceed now on threading portion. The strings must be threaded by plastic straws. That can be done as if you string your beads during handicraft class. The length of your string also affects the size of the bubbles. So the longer the string, the bigger the bubbles.

Try also to insert your strings on one end then retrieve it on other end so that it will not be difficult for you. Now the next will be tying the strings. Tie the ends of it then form a huge loop. Shift the position of your knot until it goes inside the straws.

Afterwards, take another two straws to attach it, forming handles. Now you have your wand and the last thing is testing it with your solution. Pour the solution on the container and then plunge your wand there. Lift it up slowly and pull it apart. There, you finally achieve your big bubble wand.

See your own giant bubble creation. Just following those steps above and you could finally achieve it. Doing this with your folks or children will really be fun.
