Did you know our bubbles work a treat in the rain?! Designed and made in North Wales, of course our bubbles work a treat in the wind AND rain.  There are several wonderful things that happen when it’s raining, and unless the raindrops are particularly heavy and fat – our bubbles LOVE the rain. Firstly, when it’s raining the humidity levels rise – and because our bubbles are made up of 97% water, they are literally mostly made of water themselves.  Rain, and local humidity can actually replace the water contend of a bubble that would otherwise evaporate. So wet humid conditions allow the bubbles to be BIGGER and last for LONGER.  Pretty cool eh? Raindrops will also go through the bubble film without popping it.  For the very same reason, that if you get your hand very wet, you can actually put your fingers THROUGH the bubble film!  Give it a go! This same clever bit of physics also means, that grass, leaves, ground, anything else wet, won’t pop the bubbles!! So, they will simply sit on surfaces for longer, allowing you to watch and observe and oohh and ahhh.  Have a good look at them as they sit in the rain.  You will see the colour thicknesses dancing around as the water drains down through the bubble film as it reacts to gravity. And finally, the lack of evaporation with the high humidity will mean that the bubble film will retain its thickness for longer, which means the colours, the purples, the greens, the golds will be richer for longer.  Fab for taking photo’s too.  Try taking them against a dark background. Best way to cover science whilst the kids are on holiday?  Yes, with our awesome eco, ethical fun bubbles of course. And if you want to know more – do check our Science Bubble Kit on our website! We've had a fab time in the raindrops! We were SUPER proud to sponsor the kids races at Ras yr Wyddfa, the famous Snowdon Race last weekend, and here are some pics from the day.  Da iawn i'r holl gyfranogwyr! Well done to everyone!! And this weekend we’ve been bubbling it up for 800 Scouts on the Wirral #arrowe2019 !! https://www.instagram.com/p/B0bbLlWgIgc/?igshid=gbn2gv6aed5p
