bubble painting

Today (well yesterday), we did bubble painting. The kids had a great time- but be prepared, it was messy!

First I gathered the things we needed- toilet paper rolls- you can cut them smaller to have more "brushes", paper, and paint. I mixed the powdered tempera paint with some liquid dish soap and water.



Then have the children dip the toilet paper roll into the paint- it will cause the same film as on a bubble wand. Then stamp it onto the paper. When the bubble pops it will leave a lighter print than the rim. (I didn't get pictures of this- because, as I said, it gets messy!)

This is the final product- please note it may take awhile for these to dry!
