Directions:
1. Build blower:
– Cut the bottom 2 in off the plastic bottle.
– Stretch the sock over the open bottom so fabric lies taut. Secure with a rubber band or tape.
2. Mix solution: Whisk water, dish soap, and glycerin in a shallow tray.
3. Dip & blow: Submerge the sock end in solution until fully wet (not dripping). Blow gently through the mouthpiece, watch a foamy bubble snake stretch out!
4. Rainbow twist: Dot 1–2 drops of food coloring onto the damp sock before dipping, bubbles emerge tie‑dyed.
