Summer Science Camp: Sudsy Science

Hey a couple of these experiments can also be used for Christmas gifts, too.  You do need to put them somewhere you can find them next December.  This post should have enough fun activities to keep kids engaged for the whole morning.  Bath Bombs are absolutely scientific!  Next is Super Bubble solution.  Make extra to send home. We use cane syrup—much cheaper.  Easy Gigantic Bubbles are even more fun with hula hoops and plastic pools. Hand bubbles are fun, too.  Make Rainbow Bubble Snakes or Bouncing Bubbles. Make a Bubblearium with bubbles and a flashlight.. Magic Soap and Milk Rainbow require some dish soap.  Both are kid approved experiments.  Have plenty of bowls: in order to repeat these experiments, the bowls and solutions must be free from any dish soap.  Bubble Prints are probably more art than science: our Camp isn’t strict.  It’s fun to use bubbles to paint.  Test Surface Tension on coins and compare results with a bit of dish soap.  Finally, make Elephant’s Toothpaste.  This version is kid-friendly.  Hey!  Clean-up is a snap!
