Tensile Bubbles and Platonic Geometric Solids

Have you heard of Platonic Geometric Solids?  What about Tensile Structures?  I had not heard of either.  You can teach both concepts with Tensile Bubbles.  First, let your kids test Super Bubble Recipes.  Which dish detergent makes the longest lasting bubbles?  Is glycerine better than corn syrup?  Make and identify the geometric solids.  Test drinking straws and plastic coffee stirrers.  Tray making pipe cleaner shapes.  Gather your shapes and bubble mix and have a blast outside.  Don’t forget to take photos to add to your digital portfolio.  Get going!
