SOAPBUBBLE CONTEST.

Source: Games for Everybody






Provide each child with a clay pipe and prepare two basins of soap
suds for the game. If a little glycerine is put in the water, the
bubbles will last longer.

Divide the company into two sides, an even number in each. Stretch a
cord or rope at a medium height across the middle of the room. Two
children, one from each side, play at a time. Each stands on his side,
blows the bubble from the pipe and blows it toward the opposite side,
and over the rope if he can. If it goes over the rope without
breaking, he has won one point for his side, if not, his side has
lost. Tally is kept as each set plays, and the side that has the most
points, wins, and surely deserves a prize.
