Kids Blowing Bubbles

 

Since much of the country is in a deep freeze or having yet another snowfall, I know parents are looking for indoor activities to keep the little ones busy. Sometimes, in the winter it is fun to pull out a “summer activity.”

I’m spending a week playing with two of my grandchildren while their mom recuperates from being sick. After fun with the cars, castle, pirate ship and play-doh, our 2 year-old and 9 month-old were getting a bit antsy. I spotted the bottle of bubbles on the shelf. While it was freezing rain outside, we re-lived the summer with a little bottle of bubbles.

If you need some ideas beyond blowing bubbles take a look at these websites that have recipes for bubbles and fun activities suggested:
