A double-dipping machine that blows billions of bubbles.
- 1 quart empty milk carton
- drinking straw
- clay
- 4 bubble blowing wands
- scissors
- clothespin
- bubble solution
- Check with an adult before you begin.
- To make a Bubble-Blowing Machine, take a straw and wrap some clay around the middle.
- Snip off a ring from one end of some store-bought bubble-blowing wands so that each wand has just one ring.
- Poke the ends of the bubble-blowing wands into the clay so that the rings stick out around the straw.
- Lay the milk carton on its side and cut a big window out of the side that's facing up.
- Cut two Vs across from each other on the long edges of this big window. Now place your straw in the milk carton so that the ends of the straws are resting in the Vs and the bubble-blowing wands are in the center of the milk carton. Put a clothespin on one side of the straw to make a handle for turning the straw easily.
- Fill the milk carton halfway with bubble solution.
- Turn the clothespin and blow into the rings as they come up out of the bubble solution.
- If your Bubble-Blowing Machine isn't working well, you may need to modify your design by making the wands shorter or longer.
This machine saves you the work of dipping the wand each time you want to blow a bubble. You still have to blow the bubbles and turn the straw. Can you come up with a Bubble-Blowing Machine that automatically turns the straw and blows the bubbles? Build and try out your inventions. Then send your designs to ZOOM. Be sure to let us know what worked and didn't work and what you think would work better.
