The Foamerator!

I had my friends children today and wanted to do something that would hold their attention for a little while and this was a hit!



Create wacky foam snakes by blowing air through this simple, homemade bubble-making device. (Watch it in action!) CRAFT MATERIALS:
Scissors
Plastic water bottle
Used towel
Rubber band
Shallow bowl
Dish soap

Time needed: 30 Minutes or Less
1. Cut the bottom off a plastic water bottle.

2. Cover the open end with a circular piece of towel that's a few inches wider than the bottle. Secure the towel with a rubber band.

3. Dampen the towel with water, then dip it into a shallow bowl of dish soap. Blow gently through the mouth of the bottle to create snakes of tiny bubbles.
Parents: supervise younger children to make sure they do not suck in any soap bubbles.
