Bubbles are always fun to blow, but did you know that you can blow bubbles in the winter too? You can use regular bubble solution and a bubble wand to blow icy bubbles outside on a cold day. Alternatively, you can make your own bubble solution with water and liquid soap. A wide range of speech and language areas can be targeted including:
- Articulation
-You can work on bilabial sounds (sounds we make with both lips, including p, b, m)
- Social Skills
-You can work on turn-taking
- Increasing the length of utterances
-You can work on combining words (I want bubbles, more bubbles please)
- Basic Concepts
-You can work on concepts including: high, low, up, down, one, many
- Oral-Motor Skills
-You can work on lip-rounding while blowing
You can work on all these same concepts with indoor bubbles too, all year round, and talk about how winter bubbles and year-round bubbles are the same and how they differ.
