Bubble painting is a really fun activity, children love to see the imprints of the bubbles they've made on paper. However, this version of it involves blowing coloured bubble liquid through bubble wands onto paper.
Seeing the coloured bubbles explode is brilliant fun!
Equipment:
- a large sheet or roll of white paper
- bubble mix split into several small tubs (three is ideal)
- food colouring or paint
- bubble wands or blowers
- sticky tape
Instructions:
- Add different shades of food colouring or watered down paint (1:3) water:paint) to each of the different bowls and mix in thoroughly.
- Stick the white paper up to a wall or fence in the garden.
- Using a different bubble wand for each different bowl and blow bubbles against the paper. The bubbles will explode creating coloured circles on the paper.

Playing with bubbles was one of favorite things to do when I was young. I love how you combine playing bubbles with painting.
Thanks, it's a classic play activity isn't it?
Yeah it is, indeed!
What a lovely idea. Fantastic pics as always. They feel so magical :0)
Fab idea x
Thanks!
We love the original bubble painting so I know this will go down a treat with my wee man!
It is really fun to try an old faithful in a different format.
I remember doing this at school. I used to blow them on the paper carefully so that the bubbles sat on the paper itself. Then place another paper on top and it would make all sorts of pretty patterns!
Oh that's a fun alternative, I like that!
