Frozen Bubbles Science Experiment

Quirkles Science Experiments Lindy Light book

 

Try this winter experiment for soapy fun. Using soap bubbles, you'll turn them into frozen bubbles.


Materials:

  • Measuring cup
  • Soap powder
  • Sugar
  • Hot water
  • Bowl
  • Spoon or whisk
  • Bubble wand

Procedure:

 

Start by making a strong bubble solution. Mix 1/2 cup soap powder, 1/2 cup sugar, and 3 cups hot water. (This mixture will supposedly help the bubbles last longer. You can also try it with commercially purchased bubble mixture or the recipe given in this newsletter.) Take the bubble solution and a bubble wand outside. Blow a bubble, and catch it on the wand. Let the bubble sit resting on the wand in the cold air. In the below-freezing chill, the bubble will soon freeze into a fragile crystal ball.
