#Bubble gut and hot snakes how to#
My five year old was great at making the bubble snakes! My three year old on the other hand, hasn’t figured out how to coordinate the sucking and blowing yet, so she sucked a bit of bubble solution into her mouth. Blowing lightly kind of makes a big ball of bubbles on the end of the bottle. The harder you blow, the better your bubbles will turn out. Then blow on the mouth piece of the bottle to make the bubbles. You’ll have to guess with the amounts until you get a good bubble consistency.ĭip the end of the bottle and sock into the bubble solution. I didn’t measure, but it was one big squeeze of the dish soap (thanks to my five year old) and about 1/2 cup of water. In a small container, mix together some dish soap with a small amount of water. If the socks you are using are too big to fit tightly over the bottle, you can hold them in place with an elastic, or even some duct tape. Folding it back will keep it snug on the bottle, and it will make it easy to take apart if you are using a good pair of socks that you plan to reuse afterwards. Stretch it out so it opens up completely over the water bottle:Īnd then fold it back. Stretch out the sock and slide it over the open end of the water bottle. The water bottles we used were very flimsy and flexible (not like the plastic bottles that soda comes in), so they were really easy to cut. Use a pair of scissors to cut off the bottom of a water bottle: (Some day, I swear, I will sew up those holes!) And I felt too guilty to raid the “stitch up the holes” pile of Elsa socks, rainbow socks and Easter bunny socks that have been sitting next to my sewing machine for months. If you have any mismatched pairs of socks, those would be ideal, but go figure, I couldn’t find any today. I believe they’re child size 6 to 10? They fit perfectly over top of the water bottles. I pulled out a pair of socks from my 5 year old’s drawer. All you need is a mismatched sock and a water bottle – they are really easy to make! With all of this wonderful weather, it was great to do another outdoor activity. My kids LOVE making bubbles so they had lots of fun making these bubble snakes! It’s a really simple project and you end up with the coolest, long strings of bubbles.
