Rainbow Bubbles

Materials

flashlight
dish detergent or bubble solution
clear plastic lid
straw

Put the lid on top of the flashlight, so that the rim of the lid is up and it makes a dish.
Put some bubble solution or dish detergent and water on the lid. About 1 tbsp should be enough.
Use the straw to spread the bubble solution all over the lid and even on the straw.
Use the dry end of the straw to blow a bubble.
Watch what happens. Blow more bubbles as they pop.

Hints:

If you are having trouble seeing it, go to a dark room, or check if your flashlight needs new batteries. The flash in the picture wiped out most of the reflected light and colors.
As you are watching the bubble, it will get thinner on top and thicker at the bottom.

You may think that six-inch bubbles are impressive, until you see the SIX-FOOT bubbles your family can make with this plastic and nylon Bubble Thing. Create huge spheres, giant tubes, rainbow-hues towers, jumbo bubbles-inside-bubbles and much more, using ordinary dish soap and water. Includes instructions and solution recipe.

The book explains the science, and the plastic and nylon Bubble Thing creates the magic and fun.
