I was reading the mindfulness for kids post on here just a few moments ago and thought it would be great to share what I have been doing with my two kids at ages 6 and 8, to keep them busy and happy throughout the recent summer sun.
I spotted an advert on Facebook for a bubble blaster from love by letterbox which releases many bubbles by pressing on a simple button. To my surprise, the bubbles were really calm to watch and it was (and is) a nice peaceful break (
) from the usual, hyper, rough and tumble when my boys play.
I did try and cheat and use fairy liquid, but it did not have the same effect as using proper bubble solution, so I also got a litre of bubble liquid from Amazon.
The only downside is that if you have more than one child, you need more than one bubble blaster! 
Otherwise, the calming effect is the opposite! They need one each!
