Science week with Bubble Magic

Last week was science week and we have been doing lots of science investigations and experiments. On Monday a man came to our school to teach us all about bubbles. He showed us some really cool things and we really enjoyed watching and learning from him.

He began by blowing small bubbles and then he made larger ones. He told us that in order to make a larger bubble you just need a bigger opening on your bubble wand. First he used what looked like a horn to blow big bubbles and then he used a really big round wand to make huge bubbles. This wand was so big that he couldn't blow it, instead he waved it through the air and the air in the room created the bubble for him!

He also showed us some really cool tricks like bouncing a bubble on bubble liquid, filling a bubble with smoke and even putting his hand inside a bubble without bursting it!!!

We learned that we can keep a bubble in the air by gently waving our hands underneath it to push the air up and we can see the seven colours of the rainbow on a bubble but that these colours change to a golden glow just before the bubble pops. We really enjoyed learning all about bubbles!
