Who doesn’t love bubbles? What are the benefits of playing with bubbles? Bubbles are widely loved by babies, toddlers and kids. What's not to love? These cool iridescent bubbles are so fun to watch and catch! And they're also an inexpensive form of entertainment! ... Bubbles can: - Help to work on oral motor skills. - Be a self-regulation and calming activity through deep breath work. - Help your child work on their impulse control (since you need to be patient and gentle with bubbles or they can pop before you even blow them out of the wand). - Encourage gross motor and midline crossing, as they try to jump and catch them. - Encourage visual motor skills, as they try to follow the bubbles with their eyes and pop them with their finger. - Encourage fine motor control, as they need the hold the bottle with one hand and coordinate their other hand to plunge the wand into the bottle.
