Bubble Bottle (The Foamerator!)

Like most kids, Sydney loves bubbles, but she also loves to hold them and pop them and is a little sad when they all blow away or pop before she can touch them. That makes this her new favorite toy.

ITEMS NEEDED:
Scissors
Plastic water bottle
Used towel
Rubber band
Shallow bowl
Dish soap

INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut the bottom off a plastic water bottle.

2. Cover the open end with a circular piece of towel that's a few inches wider than the bottle. I just used an old washcloth without cutting it, but this way would be less bulky). Secure the towel with a rubber band.

3. Dampen the towel with water, then dip it into a shallow bowl of dish soap. Blow gently through the mouth of the bottle to create snakes of tiny bubbles.

NOTES
If you notice fewer bubbles are coming out after a bit, spray a little more water on the washcloth and you'll be swimming in bubbles in no time!
