Summer Activity For Toddlers: Giant Bubbles
Ah, summer. It’s a time of sun tans and yummy bbq’s, hours spent at the beach and sleeping in…just kidding. I have a toddler.
In reality the days are spent putting on so much sunscreen and making the same three meals over and over again because that’s all your child wants to eat. It’s 30 minutes at the beach because the sand doesn’t taste good, and it’s waking up at 5am everyday because it’s starting to get light outside.
Ah, summer. One day we’ll get back to those pre-toddler times, but for now we’ll spend our days trying to keep our toddlers entertained.
Cue…giant bubbles.
Yes, giant bubbles. We had so much fun with this activity that Kyle even wanted to join in!
You can either make your own giant bubble solution, or you can grab this kit from Amazon.
