What Shape Is A Bubble?



We had such a blast today investigating bubbles! Who knew they could be so interesting and entertaining? We all agreed a bubble is a sphere. But we discovered a bubble is MUCH more than a sphere! We saw triangles, pentagons, squares, hexagons, heptagons, nonagons, decagons, and octagons! We saw ovals and "tubes" and we discovered the bubbles could BOUNCE and ROLL!! Where two bubbles touch they make a straight edge. And the colors! Wow. Just ask your child about it, we loved it. It was so fascinating! Check out some shots below :o)
