bubble blowing

Making floating orbs

Bubble blowing is the activity of creating soap bubbles by dipping a wand or loop into soapy liquid and blowing air through it.

A childhood pastime and party entertainment, it extends to street performers who create giant bubbles and to the bubblegum sense of blowing bubbles that expand and pop.

The kids spent the afternoon bubble blowing in the backyard.
