If your kids are anything like mine, they love bubbles.  My kids think anything that has to do with bubbles is the most exciting thing ever.  Here a fun craft to do either inside or out, easy and the mess is very minimal.  Bubble prints are so fun and can be done in any color.

Here is what you need:

1.

To make your solution correctly, mix the night before you plan to do this project.  It works better after it has been sitting for a little bit of time.  Mix paint, detergent and add 1/4 cup water and stir.  Allow to sit over night.

. When you are ready to create, pour your mixture in the shallow pan.

3.

Place paper a straw into the mixture.  Blow through the straw to make bubbles in the mixture.  This works much like the bubbles you would make in your milk as a child, creating bubbles on top of bubbles, on top of bubbles.

**NOTE: Watch children closely to ensure they do not suck in and drink the paint mixture!!

4.

While there are bubbles, place paper over them.

5.

As the bubbles break, they will make designs on the paper.  Try different colors to see a neat effect appear.
