How We Homeschool : Bubbles That Don’t Pop

Bubbles that don't popEvery so often we need to do something fun and different. Our homeschool ends up feeling like it is stuck in a rut. Ever been there?

When your homeschool is in a rut it bounces and bumps along, but it doesn’t seem to go anywhere new. Days seems to stream together. You cannot tell Monday from Thursday anymore. And neither can your kids.

You need to get out of the rut – but how?

Do something different. Try bubbles that don’t pop!

I know, you just thought, “What? How does that work? What did she just say?”

Yes, when you need something different for your homeschool try bubbles that don’t pop.

Here is the recipe – it is really, really easy.

Now, to make this solution up takes a bit of patience and trial and error. If you have little ones, it might be best to make it up the night before and try it out yourself until you get the balance of glycerin to dish soap just right.

But once you have the solution mixed up, you can pull it out when you need to mix things up in your homeschool.

How do you use it?

Think outside the box!

We have donned soaped up moist winter gloves and caught bubbles (if you are wearing wet, soapy gloves, you can hold the bubbles!).

Sometimes I put a cookie tray on the living room coffee table and pour in some bubbles-that-don’t-pop solution just before we start reading time. The kids go round up toys and other things to play with in the bubbles, or use building toys to make frames of different shapes for the bubble goo.

Bubbles that don’t pop have pulled our homeschool out of the dulrums time and time again, so why not give it a try in your homeschool?

Do you have a tip to share that could help us pull our homeschool out of the rut?
