We found ourselves outside shortly after a rain last week and Sweet Pea wanted to blow bubbles. I hadn’t realized before, but we haven’t seen what happens to bubbles when they land on wet pavement. This was the perfect day!
Sweet Pea was first enamored with the length of time the bubbles were hanging around. They almost seemed suspended in the air, not really falling or floating up to the sky. It was almost as if we were using a different bubble solution, but I’m sure it was more due to the moisture in the air. And they were coming out huge!
Next he was amazed that the bubbles didn’t pop when they landed. The pavement was quite wet, and there were quite a few puddles around. Sweet Pea was even catching them on his wet hands! He didn’t really care about the science behind all of this, just wanted to keep playing with the bubbles! He especially loves running around with a tennis racquet, trying to pop them as he swings! Awesome gross motor coordination going on there!
