Hope the wind co-operates!

Materials needed for the Activity:

1. air-is-all-around-you
2. Washing up liquid,( Container for Mixing.)

5. Carrier Bags.
6. Bamboo Cane, or Sticks.
7. Adhesive Tape, or String.
8. Newspaper or Tissue.

Procedure:

• Blowing hoops can be made easily, using the bamboo cane or sticks, tying the florists' wire around them in circles.
• The bubble solution are equally easy to make. Mix the washing up liquid and water in equal parts in the container. The container should be wide enough for them to be able to dip their bubble blowers into the mixture.

• They should observe the direction,height and the length of the moving bubbles in the air. The children should be made aware of the difference the bubbles blow in the air.
• Preschool children should fasten their crinkle paper or streamers to the bamboo canes or sticks, and observe their movement, waving in the air.
