A couple of months ago, Henley saw one of our neighbors blowing bubbles and loved them. We had a small container of bubbles at home, but the bubble wand was really tiny and only produced a couple of bubbles at a time, which really wasn't very exciting. Thus, we went to our local dollar store and purchased two different containers of bubbles. One container is about a foot long and an inch or so wide, and it definitely produces the best bubbles. Just about every time we go outside to play, Henley asks me to get the bubbles. She watches for a minute or so as I blow bubbles through the wand; however, my fascination with the bubbles always outlasts hers. I love to see how many bubbles I can produce with each dip. Sometimes, I get several dozen, which I think is amazing. I also love to see the different colors and how the colors change when the sunlight hits the bubbles. In addition, there's something really calming about watching the bubbles get caught in the breeze and float towards the sky. Some of the bubbles last quite a while before they pop.
You know, it would probably look quite strange for an adult to spend an afternoon blowing bubbles without children around. Isn't it nice that having children (or being around children) gives adults the opportunity to enjoy simple childhood activities?
