All The Fun Of Bubble Wands

By Jeffrey Ward


It might be hard to get the kids to want to go outside sometimes. It is a whole lot easier when there is a fun activity to do out there that they actually enjoy a lot. Simply by having bubble wands on hand, you can make this happen.

If you have ever felt like there are powerful forces at work keeping your kids glued to the computer, TV, or smartphone screen, you are not wrong. Behind the patterns and ways that these different technologies work are actually systems that trigger the release of dopamine when using these devices. For that reason, they become highly addictive and it is a growing problem in the world, so blowing bubbles is a great activity to get your mind focused on something that doesn't involve technology or a screen.

Parents who have a lot of financial woes might be worried about what big toy their kid will ask them for next. It is nice to have inexpensive playthings like this on hand so that they will at least be occupied in the meantime. Playing with something simple and inexpensive might help them to appreciate what they have.

Buying in bulk makes it so you have to pay even less for this type of toy. It also makes it easier to share with anyone who wants to blow bubbles with you. Nobody wants to be left out, so the more the merrier!

If there is not enough time to run to the store, you just don't want to, or there is no store nearby to go to, making your own might work. A metal coat hanger can be bent if there is grown-up supervision and help. Other times, anything that is bendable and will hold its shape well enough will probably work.

When throwing a get-together or party where most people are going to be outside, it might be a good idea to have all of the fixings for bubbles. It adds a lot of atmosphere to an outdoor event when there are countless bubbles drifting through the air. This is a much better alternative to rice since that attracts birds, along with everything that birds bring with them-- or leave behind.

At events where there are a lot of activities for the adults but not a lot for the kids, they are likely to grow restless and even cranky. In order to prevent this from happening, a simple activity like this should keep them sufficiently entertained. It is amazing what games the kids will come up with using just the bubbles alone, along with their own imaginations of course.

When you are marveling at the wonder of the spherical, shiny, translucent floating object, it might be nice to take a look at the kids who are probably in awe of the same thing. Doing so might take you back to when the world was a newer place to you. It is easy to forget how many natural wonders surround us at any given time.
