Bubble light tables allow kids to explore basic bubble science concepts, or just have a great sensory play experience. I recommend putting the tables in a tray or on a towel to help cut-down on messes.
Materials:
- Food storage containers from the Dollar Tree, or reusable take-out containers
- Small waterproof lights- these lights from Amazon work great
- Heavy Duty Aluminum Foil
Directions:
Line each container with aluminum foil- this helps make the light reflect better, and makes the container more “light proof” so only the top glows.
Just place a sheet of foil on top of the container, and then use another container to help push it down.
Trim the excess foil
Add the light. I don’t tape or glue it down because I stack the containers, and lids separately for travel.
That’s it!
I give each child wands, or foamers to make bubbles, and let them explore, and play independently, or you can do a more focused, and structured activity. It can get messy- make sure you’re prepared to wipe-up any drips, or spills.
