(NAPSA)-From the 17th
century, we’ve seen paintings
that portray children blowing
bubbles with clay pipes. And
since the 18th and 19th cen-
turies, it has been common-
place for mothers to give their
children leftover washing soap
to blow bubbles for fun.
Moving into the Machine
Age during the 20th century,
street peddlers were among
the first to sell bubbles as a
toy. These days, bubbles are
mass-produced by companies
such as Funrise Toys and
more, and reintroduced each
year on shelves during the
spring. Today, bubble solu-
tion is the best-selling toy in
the world, year after year,
with hundreds of millions of
bottles sold.
Despite what the ther-
mometer says, for many in the
country, spring is just around
the corner. And with spring
comes flowers, warmer weath-
er and children playing out-
side. National Bubble Week
bursts onto our calendars each
year in March, kicking off the
“BUBBLE SEASON,” which
goes all summer.
So how can you celebrate
the season of bubbles?
First: GET SOME BUB-
BLES!
Premier bubble maker
Funrise Toys makes Gazillion
Bubbles, whose bubble solu-
tions are made right here in
the U.S.A. On shelves at all
major retailers, Gazillion
Bubbles are the biggest,
brightest and most colorful
bubbles on the market, hands
down. And you can ramp it
up with their awesome bubble
toys and accessories, such as
the
Gazillion
Bubble
Monsoon (SRP: $24.99), the
Gazillion Bump & Go
Bubble Car (SRP: $19.99)
and the Gazillion Bubble
Hurricane (SRP: $16.99), all
available at Toys ‘R’ Us.
Next: TRY OUT SOME
BUBBLE TRICKS!
• The Bubble Snake: Cut
the bottom off of a plastic
bottle. Slip a sock over the cut
end of the bottle. (If you like,
you can secure it with a rub-
ber band.) Squirt dishwashing
liquid into a bowl or plate.
Pour some bubble solution
onto a plate. Dip the sock end
of the bottle into the solution.
Blow through the mouth of
the bottle to make a bubble
snake! Want to make a bubble
rainbow? Stripe the sock with
food coloring and repeat the
trick!
• The Unpoppable
Bubble: Put a container lid
on the table face up. Pour in
your
bubble
solution
(Gazillion Bubbles have the
reputation of being the
strongest on the market) and
dip in a straw so that it’s wet
halfway up the straw. Touch
the straw to the lid and blow a
bubble on the lid. Slowly pull
the straw all the way out of
the bubble. Now, poke the
scissors through the wall of
your bubble. What happens?
• The Square Bubble:
Take four pipe cleaners and
form them into a square with
a wand. Dip the wand in your
bubble solution and see what
happens!
Finally: TEST YOUR
KNOWLEDGE AND
BECOME A BUBBLE
MASTER!
• How a Bubble Gets Its
Color: As waves of light pass
through the bubble, they get
distorted by reflecting off dif-
ferent layers of soap film and
are
called
iridescence.
Bubbles can make nearly any day more fun.
(Gazillion Bubbles is also
known to have the most col-
orful and beautiful bubbles
available.)
• Can You Freeze a
Bubble? A bubble’s shell is
composed of a layer of water
molecules surrounded by two
thin
layers
of
soap.
Technically, a bubble will
freeze below 32 degrees
Fahrenheit like all water. The
only problem is that bubbles
tend to burst after a few sec-
onds, so in order to truly see a
bubble freeze, the tempera-
ture needs to fall to about 23
degrees for bubble staying
power.
• Why Do Bubbles
Burst? Anything that frac-
tures the tenuous layer of
water molecules can cause a
bubble to burst. For example,
a gust of wind or an object
(like your finger) will easily
cause a bubble to burst.
Bubbles also burst by simply
drying out. Moisture within a
bubble causes the molecules
to draw closer together,
enabling the bubble to stay
formed for a longer period of
time. This is why bubbles
tend to work best in high-
humidity environments.
Essentially, bubbles are
loved the world over by peo-
ple of all ages. There are even
university studies focused on
them. For kids, bubbles are
pure fun for spring and sum-
mer outdoor frolic. For adults
(where you’ll find them at
events such as proms, wed-
dings and more), they sym-
bolize peace, harmony and
beauty.
Our suggestion: Start
BUBBLE SEASON right,
and pop into a store today to
stock up. And don’t forget to
share your bubble memories
and enter the annual
Gazillion Bubbles annual
photo contest, with prizes
monthly through August 30,
2015

Simple Tips To Get Growing At Home
(NAPSA)-There may be
few things more satisfying
than growing colorful flowers
or eating vegetables picked
fresh from the garden. That
might seem ambitious if you
haven’t gardened before, but
getting started this year need
not be difficult. Just follow
these simple gardening tips to
enjoy the benefits of fresh air,
gentle exercise and healthy
produce:
1) Pick your spot with
care. Plants need sun and
water to survive. Vegetables
and most flowers need full
sun-at least six hours of sun-
light every day during the
growing season. Plant close to
an outdoor water source to
make hot weather watering
easier.
2) Start with the soil.
Because plants live by their
roots, the most important
part of any garden is below
ground. Most soil around
houses isn’t ideal for plants
but can be improved by
adding nutrient-rich organic
matter, usually in the form of
compost, shredded leaves or
composted manure. Bagged
soil mixes marked specifically
for growing vegetables are
ideal for containers.
3) Keep your first garden
manageable. For beginners,
try a plot 4 feet by 8 feet, or
half a dozen good-sized (24-
36”) containers. That’s
enough to provide a satisfying
harvest of herbs, greens or a
few tomato plants while you
get a feel for the amount of
time and effort it takes to
water and weed. Pots are the
easiest to control soil, water
Burpee offers a wide range of
flowers, vegetables and
herbs to grow at home.
and light. Creating a contain-
er garden of vegetables, herbs
and patio flowers is a good
place for novices to start.
4) Get a head start. Some
vegetables and flowers may
need to be started from seed
6-8 weeks before it’s safe to
plant them outside. You’ll
need to do this for tomatoes,
peppers, eggplants and petu-
nias. But other favorites like
zucchini, cucumbers, beans
and sunflowers are easily
sown in the ground with seed.
You can learn more about
starting and sowing seeds at
www.burpee.com. Planting
time will vary in each growing
zone, but is generally best in
the late spring.
5) Watch your garden
grow. It’s fun for the whole
family to observe seeds taking
root and growing into plants.
Be sure to water and weed
regularly as you wait for the
bounty of your first harvest.

Time Planner app makes
planting in specific garden
regions easy. To download
the app, buy non-GMO seeds

ful “how-to” articles and
