Fun Science Project of the Week: Bubble Prints

Fun Science Project of the Week Bubble Prints From Anne Marie Helmenstine, Ph.D., your Guide to Chemistry Bubbles are fun no matter what you do with them, but this project is extra-fun because it allows you to capture the image of bubbles on paper. Make Bubble Prints Art Even for the Artless  I can barely draw a stick figure that you would recognize as human, yet I can make bubble prints that might pass for art. Bubble prints can help you understand how bubbles behave, plus they are fun to make. You might want to hang your bubble prints on the wall or use them as science-y gift wrap. Learn About Bubbles Homemade Bubble Solution  If you don't have any bubble solution for this project (or if you get wild and run out), it's really easy to make your own. How Bubbles Work Would it surprise you to learn there is actually quite a lot of science involved in bubbles? Here's a look at what bubbles are and how they interact with each other. Bubble Life vs Temperature Here's a science project you can do to explore whether or not there is a relationship between the temperature and how long bubbles last. Got Questions?
