Soap bubbles for children

Soap bubbles delight every child!

Seifenblasen

Small and large children enjoy watching soap bubbles. The small bubbles float through the air in swarms. Individual giant bubbles can frame an entire person. If the little ones are able to blow themselves, they will enjoy this game. You blow carefully on the round opening. Drive them Soap bubbles with the air away, they try to catch them.

What are soap bubbles made of?

The liquid that creates the bubbles is made up of distilled water and soapy water. The specific composition differs between different manufacturers. Some producers are still betting Glycerin and add sugar. This is intended to make the bubbles more resilient. The soapy water is created by mixing raw soap homogeneously with an aqueous liquid.

How are soap bubbles created?

A carrier object is placed in the soapy water. When you lift it out, a thin layer forms inside. It fills the hollow form like a mirror. Now the child can carefully blow into the middle of the soap mirror. The high surface tension ensures that the straight surface slowly turns into a round shape. At some point the bladder is so full that it closes completely. Now the soap bubble floats freely in the air. The glycerin contained in the raw soap ensures that the tension is maintained for a long time.

Soap bubbles as Garden toys !

If you buy the bubble liquid for your children, it makes sense to try it out in the garden. During the first few attempts it often happens that the soap bubbles burst quickly. The liquid seeps into the ground and leaves hardly any traces. In the children's room, the soap bubbles can remain visible on the wallpaper. An overturned bottle creates a slippery floor. As a garden toy, children can safely experiment with the air bubbles.

At what age can soap bubbles be used?

From one year onwards, the little ones can slowly control their breathing. They try to blow into the mold. The adults should hold the carrier object still. Later the children are able to open the container themselves. Now it is particularly important that the soap bubbles are blown outdoors. It can easily happen that the liquid is spilled out accidentally. The little ones still move both hands in parallel. The carrier is therefore often pushed into the inclined can. The lye runs onto the floor. If you buy bubbles for older children, they will experiment with them. You are trying to catch a bubble with the carrier object. A second soap bubble is then blown around it. It is possible to blow smoke into an existing bubble. Now the children can develop their own supporting objects with which they can create giant bubbles.

It is always important to buy enough liquid. The tears come quickly when the only can tips over. The soap mixture then disappears into the ground. If you have a second pack on hand, the tears can be dried quickly. It is necessary that children learn how to deal with it. You must understand that the liquid is not allowed to be drunk. Only when they understand this can they try out soap bubble liquid in the garden on their own. Younger children should only receive doses under adult supervision. You will quickly learn how to deal with them. There is great joy when your first soap bubble floats into the air.
