Do square bubbles really exist? That's the question of the day and the answer is yes… if you know the science secret. Square bubbles are easy to make and serve as a great learning tool as students explore the concepts of soap films and surface tension. We’ll provide all the tools you need to build your own “square bubble creator” and even give you the recipe for our favorite bubble solution. Get ready to amaze your friends! Recommended for children ages 6 and up.

What's included?

  • 8 White connector balls
  • 13 Blue connector rods

What does it teach?

Bubbles form because of the surface tension of water. Normal bubbles enclose the maximum volume of air with the minimum amount of bubble solution. This clever square bubble device will help you create a much smaller minimum surface making it possible to create a cube-shaped bubble. Now that’s a cool lesson in surface tension!

WHAT SHAPE ARE THEY!!!???!!!

What is there to say? Who has seen a square bubble before? I sure hadn't until I did this experiment. The one problem was trying to find a bucket big enough for the bubble solution.
