Crazy Fun

I read about the "super foam-erator" on Betz White's blog a few weeks ago. I thought it looked crazy fun, so we gave it a try on a free afternoon at Mom and Dad's house.

It was a blast and like nothing I have ever seen before. (That's Lake Ontario in my parents' back yard.)

Bubble snakes!

You can see the details here: empty bottle, old wash cloth, rubber bands, water, dish soap. So easy.

If you want to try this, Benjamin would like to advise you: Do Not Inhale. Only Exhale Into the Bottle.

The bubbles floated all over the yard and disintegrated into shiny blobs.

Isn't it great to have fun with a toy that you didn't buy at Target and does not require batteries?

Thanks for the tip! We have a boy here who would love to try this out as soon as he's awake.
Summerly hot here, so being outside is the best.

What fun, thanks, granma has a new trick for our annual cottage visit with our children and grandchildren, I think even the parents will play.
