Kids' Crafts / Bathtub Bubble Volcanoes

KIDS CRAFTS

BATHTUB BUBBLE VOLCANOES
Forget about buying fancy bath toys!  Use practical things you already have around the house such as a set of different sizes of funnels.  Or find some at the hardware or department store and let the little ones have fun in the bathtub.  

First fill the bathtub full of bubblebath and swish the water to make them multiply!  Turn a funnel upside down and press down into the bubbles.  You will find that bubbles will shoot up through the narrow end of the funnel into the air, coming out the top of the funnel like a volcano! 

This sounds like a fun activity for dads to introduce to the children.  Think of it as a great bonding time!  It just might get a little rowdy in the bathroom, Moms!
