Bubbles N Butterflies


What You'll Need:
Cardboard
Bubbles
Food Coloring
Yarn
Hole Puncher
Work outdoors or Cover Work Area

Bubbles and color were a great combo not just done by Crayola. During spring season this combo is a great way to incorporate color recognition, as well as make fun wings to fly around the house.

Combine 1-2 drops of food coloring (check stain and contact safety) with bubbles, or make your own!

If the weather allows, head outside,
or cover the heck out of your work area!

We created butterflies for Spring, but possibilities are endless.

Using old folders or cutting out a template onto cardboard create your wings and allow children to cover their wings with their bubble colors.

Allow time to dry, and don't over bubble the area! Or you'll have saggy wings, and NO ONE likes saggy wings.

Punch four holes, measure children's wingspan and tie ribbon or yarn for wings, and take off time!
How can bubbles and food coloring not be a great idea ; )
