Bubble "Snakes" and Elephant Toothpaste

I am watching my friends kids today.  I decided to pull a couple of projects off of Pinterest to entertain the kidlets.  The first experiment I tried was elephant toothpaste.  I saw this on a local news show a couple of weeks ago and also had it pinned.  I pulled today's recipe Elephant Toothpaste from a blog called Preschool Powol Packets.

 The first time we tried it, it didn't seem to work very well.  I soon discovered that I didn't mix the warm water and yeast well enough and left the majority of the yeast at the bottom of the cup.  I decided to try it a second time and ta-da!  It worked and the kids loved it.  I did this outside which allowed the kids to play in it and get it all over.  I will definitely try this again.

The next activity we tried was Bubble "Snakes".  I found the Bubble "Snakes" idea from Somewhat Simple.
