Dr Zigs Bubble Painting Kit

The kit includes four ready-to-use Dr Zigs bubble paints in random colours, one bamboo bubble foamer, one bamboo bubble straw, and a printed sheet of instructions and tips. Pour the paint into a container and you are set to start making bubble art on paper or card straight away.

Dip the bamboo bubble foamer into the bubble paint, lift it up and let it drip, then blow. Clouds of painty bubble foam form on the end of the foamer. Drop those onto your paper or card, and as the paint trickles down through the foam you will see textured bubble patterns appear once it dries.

Yes. Put a small amount of bubble paint into a cup, pop in the bamboo straw and blow. Piles of bubbles grow up out of the cup. Scoop them onto your paper, or lay your card upside down over the bubbles rising from the cup to capture the pattern.

Dr Zigs lists this kit for older children and adults aged 6 and up, and for preschoolers aged 3 to 6 with adult help. Younger children enjoy blowing and scooping the foam, while older ones can plan colours and patterns for their finished artwork.

The kit suits crafts of many kinds, from Christmas cards and Eid activities to gift making and hand-printed wrapping paper. Every print is different because the bubbles burst in their own random pattern, so no two pieces of bubble art turn out the same.

The four ready-to-use bubble paints arrive in random colours, so the shades in your kit are a surprise. Mixing the foam from different cups on one sheet lets you layer colours and build up richer patterns as each painty bubble bursts and dries.

Bubble painting is a messy craft, so work on a wipeable surface or cover it with newspaper first. The bamboo foamer and straw rinse under running water once you finish, and you can leave finished paper flat to dry so the bubble textures set properly.
