Instructions

How to Make Bubble Painting Art for Kids

  • In each plastic cup, combine 2-3 tablespoons of dish soap, 0.25 cup of warm water, and a few drops of liquid watercolors or food coloring. Stir gently to blend without creating bubbles in the mixture.
  • Take a straw and dip it into your colorful mixture, ensuring it’s fully submerged to soak up the colors.
  • Blow gently through the straw, forming bubbles that rise above the rim of the cup.
  • Position your heavyweight paper beneath the bubbling straw and allow the bubbles to overflow, creating beautiful prints on the paper’s surface.
  • Once done, set the paper aside to dry completely.
  • Once dried, find a special spot to display your bubble painting or frame them as thoughtful gifts.

Notes

Optional: Add a splash of glitter before the paint dries for extra sparkle.
