Thank you to everyone who came to Little Bookworms Storytime today! 🪱

We read Horizontal Crocodile by Scott Rothman, sang “Row, Row, Row Your Boat” with a surprise crocodile puppet visitor, and enjoyed some egg shaker movement songs! 🥚🎵🕺

After stories and songs, we made bubble process art! Using durable cardboard rolls dipped in bubble paint, we painted bubbly potions bubbling out of our cauldrons! 🫧

As they experimented, children organically explored color theory by mixing primary colors to create secondary colors like orange, green, and purple. They also explored contrast as they painted against their black cauldrons! 🎨

Want to try bubble paint at home? You only need three ingredients:

🫧 Washable tempera paint
🫧 Water
🫧 Dish soap

Feel free to experiment with your ratios! If your paint is too runny, add a little more paint. If it isn't bubbly enough, add a few more drops of dish soap.

Happy bubbling! 🫧🎨

This event is free and open to everyone.
