As summer rolls around, keeping the little ones entertained can feel like a full-time job. Thankfully, Mini U offers a delightful range of bath bombs and bubble baths that are not only perfect for bath time but can also be creatively used for various fun activities outside the bathroom. Here’s how Mini U can become your summer saviour, keeping kids entertained without breaking the bank.
Bath Time Bliss
First things first, Mini U’s children’s bath bombs and bubble baths transform an ordinary bath into an extraordinary one. Our products are specially designed with children in mind, using gentle, skin-friendly ingredients that are perfect for delicate skin. The vibrant colours and sweet fragrances add an extra layer of fun, making bath time a treat rather than a chore.
Mini U’s bath bombs are a year-round hit with kids. Simply drop one into the bath and watch as it fizzes and releases a burst of colour and fragrance. There are so many to choose from, and our Bath Bomb Gift Set packages together four of our favourite award-winning rainbow bath bombs. Not only do they create a mesmerising spectacle, but they also leave the skin feeling soft and hydrated. For bubble bath lovers, Raspberry Bubblegum Bubble Bath and Sparkling Strawberry Bubble Bath create mountains of bubbles that can keep children entertained for ages. Plus, the bubbles are super easy to rinse off, leaving no residue behind.
Beyond the Bathroom: Get Creative with Mini U Products
The fun doesn’t have to end when bath time is over. Our products can be used in a variety of imaginative ways outside the bathroom, ensuring hours of affordable entertainment.
1. Backyard Water Play
Turn your garden into a mini water park using Mini U’s bath bombs. Fill a paddling pool with water and drop in a bath bomb for a colourful and fragrant splash party. Your little ones will love it!
2. Sensory Play
Our fizzy favourites are fantastic for sensory play activities. We love filling a PlayTRAY with water and adding Fizzy Plops for colourful exploration. Each of the drops turns a section of the tray a different colour, and mixing and matching can teach older children about colour theory.
For a slightly drier alternative, try mixing bubble bath with a bit of water to create a foam that kids can play with. Add some small toys or tools for an added layer of fun. This activity is perfect for developing fine motor skills and fostering imaginative play.
3. Art and Craft Time
Get creative with Mini U’s bubble baths by using them in art projects. Mix a small amount of bubble bath with water and food colouring to create bubble paint. Children can blow bubbles onto paper and watch as they burst, leaving behind colourful patterns. This unique form of painting can keep kids entertained for hours and is a fantastic way to encourage artistic expression.
Make sure the paint that you choose is washable, and definitely choose some older clothes for this activity!
4. Science Experiments
Turn bath time into a learning experience by conducting simple science experiments with our bath bombs. Discuss with your children why the bath bombs fizz when they touch the water, introducing basic concepts of chemistry. You can even experiment with different temperatures of water to see how it affects the fizzing process. It’s a fun and educational way to spend time together.
