Rainbow Bubble Foam Recipe
First off, I think we can all agree that this bubble foam looks pretty awesome. The colors are so vibrant, they’re just calling the kids to stick their hands in and play.
But before they mix the colors altogether, have them make their very own foam bubble rainbow. It’s a great way to have them imagine the rainbow, create it, and do it all on their own.
How long will foam last?
It’s really going to last for just one activity. The more that the kids play with it, the more that the bubbles are going to disappear. But luckily, since it takes only three easy ingredients, you can whip up another batch of foam bubbles in no time at all.
Are these bubbles safe for children?
As long as you talk to them about not putting them in their mouths, they should be fine. You can also use a soap that is free of chemicals and food coloring that is natural, too, if you’re worried.

How to make Rainbow Bubble Foam
Mix 1 cup of water with your desired food color shade. Try to pick colors that are a part of the rainbow but if not, it’s okay, too.
Next, add in your tear-free soap and take your mixer, and start mixing the ingredients together.
The longer that you mix the bubble foam recipe, the more foam bubbles that are going to start to form.
The end result should have all the liquid out of the bowl and the bubble foam should look very similar to the image below. Light, fluffy, and vibrant.
Repeat the process with all of the colors that you’ve chosen and then have your child make a bubble foam rainbow just like the one below.
How to use Bubble Foam
After the rainbow is made, let the kids have fun! Toss in some toys and turn them into a sensory bin of sorts! Hide a few toys, let them explore with their hands, and see what they can find.
We used some old cookie cutters and beach toys and they worked out perfectly. The kids played for hours and had an amazing time!
