BUBBLES!

My girlfriend Mandy started a small group this week, called "Little Learners" and we were one of the lucky few attendees :) Every other week we'll be learning about a different topic and doing hands-on activities to encourage learning. Today's topic was bubbles.


We all brought bubble "stuff"; bubble blowers, bubble guns, bubble wands, bubble everything. If it made bubbles, we had it there. Mandy had a kiddie pool set up, and the kid used their wands to dip them in and make bubbles.

She also got a hoola-hoop and dunked into the bubbles. When Mandy pulled it up out of the mixture, a huge bubble formed. It was pretty cool, esp. for the kidlets.


Lauren and Jacob loved playing in with the bubbles. Jacob was constantly wanting to dip his hands in the pool, which made him very, ahem, interesting-looking after he'd wipe his hair with his soapy, messy hands.


After everyone was sufficiently slathered in bubbles, we took the fun inside. We made crafts, played with play-doh and then had a picnic lunch.


We had a really fun time! The kids loved playing together and learning about the different ways to make bubbles. And I'm really excited about topic for our next meeting, too :)
