Basketful of Bubbles from ALEX

You've got no troubles when you're lathering up with your very own bubbles! With Basketful of Bubbles, you can make your own beautiful soaps, then show them off. The kit includes 4 glycerine soap discs, 24 soap molds, a measuring cup, 2 wicker baskets, crinkly filler paper, and 2 small silk flowers. Because you need to use a plastic knife and microwave oven to make soap, you'll also need an adult assistant nearby.

Pick out a soap disc - you've got red, yellow, purple, and light green to choose from. Follow the directions for cutting the disc, putting it in the measuring cup, and melting it in the microwave. Once your soap mixture is ready, your soap molding can start. Pour the mixture into the molds to make soaps shaped like daisies, shells, fish, leaves, hearts, roses, and more! When your soaps have cooled down, it's time to pop them out of the molds. Then arrange the soaps, crinkly purple filler paper, and silk roses in the two baskets. When you're done, you can give one as a gift and keep one for yourself. Or keep them both near the tub, and next time you're in the bath or shower, grab one of your creations and soap up!
