I was a parent helper today for little bubbles school trip. It’s always a bit weird being back in Dundee Science Centre especially as it now bares little resemblance to the centre that I worked in ‘mumble mumble’ years ago.

Who remembers the giant head and big leaf? Tell me what you remember about it and maybe leave out the bit where you tell me you met me when you were six. 😂

It is thought that soap was invented 5000 years ago by ancient Sumerians, which means that they were the first to discover soap bubbles! Over the more recent centuries a variety of tools were created for blowing bubbles, the first ones being a type of pipe. It’s lovely to think that people have been enthralled by bubbles for millennia and I like to think I’m helping to continue a long held fascination. 😊🫧🫧

Celebrating my 7th year on Facebook and in business. It’s been a wild ride so far and I’ve enjoyed every minute, well maybe not the hours spent doing tax returns, but definitely all the bubble fun, circus and science shenanigans. Here’s to many more 🥂🫧🫧

It is National Bubble Week so I thought I'd share some bubble knowledge. The earliest representation of soap bubbles in art comes from 1574 on the rear of a portrait of Adam Wachendorff and are then depicted throughout the centuries in a variety of mediums.

The image below is Karel Dujardin's Boy Blowing Soap Bubbles, 1663.

I'm still on the hunt for my favourite bubbles in art so share yours if you have one.

Today has been an epic adventure. It started out in a hotel in Livingston, no I wasn’t on the plane, just under the flight path, 😂 and I was away to celebrate the gorgeous Reeve’s birthday at his school. It was a bubbletastic morning with the sweetest kids and most awesome staff, and then I got to go have a wander round the outlet village before heading home in the sunshine.

My diary is starting to fill up and I’m glad to see my website enquiry form is working well. If you’re hoping for some bubbletastic fun over the Easter hols or on the run up to summer then get in touch. 😊🫧🫧

I was back to Warddykes PS this morning for some bubbletastic fun with all of P2, all of P1 and Nursery. Pretty sure we were at risk of disturbing the rest of the school with the noise 😂. They were a wonderful audience though and I was even gifted a couple of beautiful pictures which I suspect were drawn after yesterday’s workshops.

There were well over 100 kids to put into bubbles this lunchtime.

It’s National Science and Engineering Week and I’m back with some super science at Warddykes PS. They are, quite honestly, the most science excited school I have ever had the pleasure to work with. Today was kitchen chemistry and super slime and I’ll be back tomorrow for some bubbletastic fun.

It’s new dungaree day at Bubble HQ. Rainbow dinosaurs are right up my silly street. 😁🦕🦖🌈

Is it possible to have too many pairs of dungarees?
I can highly recommend Run & Fly if you’re looking for some fun, ethical dungers.

BIG NEWS!!!!! Poppy Bubbles has a website! Well I’ve had one for about six years but it turns out I’m rubbish at website design. 😂 luckily I recently met the wonderful Freya from Faeble Arts and a short meeting later I had a web designer. Go look and let me know what you think? 😊🫧🫧🫧

After seven years of hard work my poor bubble cube prop has burst a couple of its welds. Today I unwrapped it (a challenge in itself) and discovered the yarn is now beautifully permed. 😂 shame is smells of bubble mix. It’s going away tomorrow for a little TLC from the wonderful guy who welded it together for me in the first place. I still remember the confused look I got when I first explained what I needed. Hopefully it will be back to like new in no time. Now I have to go find some new funky yarn to wrap it with. I hope your Sunday is as wonderfully random as mine. 😊🫧🫧

I know Burns day is past but I was too busy doing the time warp to be on social media. 😂 Meanwhile some affy braw folk I ken have done an affy braw version of my very favourite poem. Enjoy 😊 🐎🍻👹

🚨🚨🚨 NEW: A local filmmaker has reinterpreted the iconic Robert Burns poem Tam O’ Shanter in a new short film which is set on the streets of Dundee.

Dylan Drummond used his own imagination to reinterpret the poem in an 11-minute short film follows a couple stroll around some of Dundee's most iconic landmarks, including V&A Dundee, the McManus, and atmospheric Howff burial ground.

I was off to a frozen inspired birthday today and there were many little folk in the most gorgeous dresses. 🥰 lots of smiles, a little chaos and plenty of bubbles to keep everyone amused.

I’ve been out twice this week already and I’ve got my first birthday party of the year tomorrow. It’s already shaping up to be another bubbletastic year with enquiries coming in from all over the place.

My website is also under construction and I’m so excited to share it with you all when it’s finished.

It’s going to be a busy year.
