More about Science Of Bubbles

Science of Bubbles for Kids

Bubbles—those shimmering, floating spheres—are more than just playtime magic. Beneath their delicate surface lies a world of fascinating science, and at Wild Science, we bring that world to life! Our Science of Bubbles for Kids workshop explores the wonder behind every pop, swirl, and gleam. Let’s dive into the fun and discover the secrets of bubbles!

1. The Bubble Blueprint: What Makes a Bubble?

Bubble Basics

Bubbles are not just soap and water—they're pockets of air trapped inside a thin film of liquid. But what creates their signature look? Let’s take a closer look inside the rainbowy sphere!

Shapes in the Spheres

Why are bubbles round? Because nature loves efficiency! A sphere holds the least surface area for a given volume, making it the strongest and most balanced shape.

Floating or Sinking?

Ever seen a bubble soar—or fall? It’s all down to density. Lighter-than-air bubbles rise, while denser ones sink. Simple science in action!

To Pop or Not to Pop?

Bubbles burst because of surface tension. But some bubbles can last surprisingly long with the right ingredients and conditions. Discover what gives a bubble its staying power!

Bubbles in Technicolour

Why are bubbles colourful? Light reflects off the soap film and creates rainbow-like patterns. It’s a mini light show!

2. Hands-On Bubble Adventures

Kids don’t just learn—they get involved! Our bubble workshop is packed with playful experiments and creative challenges:

Bubble Shapes: Blow bubbles and observe their round, oval, or even square forms! Discover how shapes change with technique.
Floating vs. Sinking: Test different bubble mixtures to see which ones rise or sink.
Pop or Survive: Learn what makes some bubbles last longer than others—it’s a test of bubble resilience!
Colourful Bubbles: Use light to reveal dancing colours on your bubbles—it’s like painting with light!
Bubble Snakes: Craft long, slithery bubble snakes using household items. It’s fun, easy, and interactive!
Bubble Art: Dip and blow to create bubble paintings. Watch unique patterns and colours appear on your page.
Bubble Race: Challenge your friends! Who can blow the largest or longest-lasting bubble?

Every child experiences the joy of being a bubble scientist, experimenting, creating, and discovering through hands-on activities.

3. Bubble Recipe for Young Scientists

We share our safe, simple, and non-toxic bubble solution recipe so every child can make their own mixture at home. Whether you’re in preschool or secondary school, bubbles are timeless fun with real scientific value!

4. Nationwide Fun, Customised for You

At Wild Science, we’re passionate about engaging young minds through interactive, educational experiences. We provide nationwide workshops tailored to suit your school or group. From infants to teens, bubbles bring joy and learning in equal measure.

Let’s pop, float, and marvel together—because bubbles aren’t just for fun… they’re full of fascinating science!

FAQs

Edinburgh

An unforgettable experience. Your kids will love it! We had Susie in Edinburgh, she was exceptionally good - with the animals and the kids, and the grown-ups too! We all had an amazing time. I highly recommend booking Susie for Wild Science if you're in Scotland. So many memories made!

Chloe Robson

Sandylands

Suzie held an event in Sandylands holiday park today and we had a ball! every animal is well cared for and beautiful. very versed on each animals needs and nature, took the time to explain certain facts and even sat down at the end of her time to talk more on her other animals! cannot recommend suzie enough!!

Ajay Syal

We booked a corporate animal therapy session as part of Mental Health Awareness week, and it was truly loved by everyone. The animal expert Harriet was absolutely fantastic - super knowledgable, engaging and clearly passionate about every animal she introduced us to. The visit included a snake, rabbit, gerbil, snail and more - all of which were super theraputic! It was amazing to see how quickly the team relaxed and connected with the animals. Harriet created such a calm environment that even our more hesitant colleagues were soon happily holding the snake.

We can't recommend Wild Science highly enough - if you're looking to boost morale, reduce stress or just do something a little bit different for your team.

Susie was at Parkdean in Saltcoats and it was a fantastic experience. Very knowledgeable and chatted and answered questions from children and adults. Loved it.

Made my child's summer holding a royal python!

Shannagh Aitken

Attended a group with my husband & kids. Youngest being 1 & it was incredible. Different kinds of animals, was able to hold what we could & pet the rest.
Thanks again for the incredible experience! Fidget was amazing & we are now thinking if adding ferrets to the family. I hope fidget enjoys his chicken 🐔

Kids had a total blast at Wild Science. So did mum!
We got to meet a cockroach, a snake, 2 geckos, a bearded dragon, a ferret, a mexican tarantula, and a bunny!
The lady was going to name a cockroach 🪳 after my son Leon 🤣 poor kid was peed and pooped on, it was sooo funny! Everyone had such a great time. Thanks for entertaining us. 😆

Animal visit (Summer Fair Gilmerton Community Centre)
The management committee would like to thank Susie and trainee Amy for bringing the animals to the Community Centres Summer Fair. Once again, they were very popular with adults and children. Those attending said they enjoyed meeting and learning about the animals up close.

Crystal Peaks Shopping Centre

We were delighted to have both Shannon & Amy attend our free family event at Crystal Peaks shopping centre this Friday. Their communication on the run-up to our event was great. On the day, the head office called us to check everything was ready & the hosts arrived in plenty of time. We had a lot of very excited guests that got to enjoy a range of fascinating creatures throughout the day. The team were great with the public & very knowledgeable about their little critters. We can't recommend Wild Science enough. Thank you for making our day so good.

Des Best

The animal expert we were lucky enough to have from wild science was excellent. She even managed to keep the kids at a 7 year old birthday party relatively quiet and very interested. Would highly recommend.

Toni

It was a wonderful day had by all, the adults and children really had a great time every animal was explained in great detail and we will be booking them for further events

Dani Jaff Klein

My son (4) and his friends had the most wonderful time! The scientist was totally able to engage their attention for over an hour and they had fun and learned so much too! Thanks for the best party!

Leah Lorentson

We have used Wild Science for 3 years at our school. Each year they deliver wonderful sessions to Nursery and Reception children. We have never had any issues and would recommend them to everyone. The children love the experience and the animals and staff are amazing!

Jason Ewart

Thank you Wild Science for such an amazing party! Amy was super professional and had the kids eating out of the palm of her hand. My son absolutely loved the animals she brought and we were so impressed with how she handled the group (of 3-5 year olds) and gave them interesting and fun facts about each animal which kept all the kids interested and engaged. It was so much fun, we would highly recommend it!!!

Jasmine Pierce

Ross was absolutely amazing. So patient, kind and knowledgeable of the animals and the slime workshop. We had a party of 20 and with the madness that ensued he was always calm and reassuring for each child if they were apprehensive of holding any animal - big or small. Would 100% book Wild Science again, especially Ross.
Thank you for making our animal lovers birthday so special!

Lucia Williams

Ross came to my sons 3rd birthday, he was brilliant, the kids had a great time, the whole thing was really relaxed and everyone got a good amount of time with the animals and really enjoyed the experience - the customer service beforehand was really good, great communication and lots of questions answered - highly recommend!
