With help from a grown up, find a range of different soap products, such as washing up liquid, soap flakes, bubble bath, hand wash, a bar of soap, and non-bio washing powder from around your home.

Make sure the soap products are safe to touch or use rubber gloves.

Do not put any products in your mouth.

Discuss the following questions to make predictions about each product

Which product will create the longest lasting bubbles?

Which product will create the biggest bubbles?

Which product will create the smallest bubbles?

Which product will create the foamiest bubbles?

Finally, use whisks, straws, potato mashers and sponges to create bubbles. Find out which creates the longest lasting, biggest, smallest and foamiest bubbles.

I wonder... who can make the biggest bubble?

PSHE - A crumpled heart

This week we have been learning about how we stay safe. One very important way to help those around us feel safe is to use kind words. 

Cut a heart shape using a piece of paper. In our Teams meeting we will be thinking of words that could crumple a heart. For each unkind word, make a fold in your paper. At the end, say sorry to the heart and try to flatten it back out. Does the heart look the same as before?
