Introduction

Frozen soap bubbles are a beautiful and delicate sight to behold. But if you don’t want to brave the cold weather to make them, there is a way to do it indoors. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to make frozen soap bubbles without having to go outside.

Materials

• Plate
• Bubble solution
• Straw
• Freezer

Instructions

1. Coat a plate with bubble solution. Dip a plate into a shallow dish of bubble solution and swirl it around to coat the entire surface.
2. Blow a bubble over the plate. Hold a straw close to the surface of the bubble solution and blow gently. Keep the bubble connected to the straw as you blow.
3. Place the bubble on the plate. Once the bubble is large enough, carefully place it down onto the plate.
4. Remove the straw. Slowly and gently remove the straw from the bubble.
5. Transfer the bubble to the freezer. Use a spatula or your fingers (being very careful not to pop the bubble) to transfer the bubble to a plate in the freezer.
6. Check on the bubble after 30 minutes. The bubble should be frozen solid.

Tips

• Use a wide, shallow plate to make it easier to transfer the bubble to the freezer.
• Be very gentle when blowing and handling the bubble.
• If the bubble pops, simply start over.
• You can add food coloring to the bubble solution to create colorful frozen bubbles.
• Frozen soap bubbles are very delicate and will only last for about 10 minutes. Enjoy them while you can!

Troubleshooting

• My bubble popped before I could transfer it to the freezer. Make sure you are being very gentle when blowing and handling the bubble. You may also want to try using a wider, shallower plate.
• My bubble didn’t freeze solid. Make sure you are placing the bubble in the coldest part of the freezer. You may also want to try freezing the bubble for longer than 30 minutes.
• My frozen bubble popped when I took it out of the freezer. Frozen soap bubbles are very delicate. Be sure to handle them with care. You may also want to try transferring the bubble to a plate that is at room temperature before taking it out of the freezer.
