In this splendid toy you really see a bubble spinning down. It is quite an amazing sight. To make the Bubble Spinner you need just a few things – an old 250-ml plastic water bottle, cycle spoke, scissors and a ring magnet. Cut all the 3 rings on this bottle. They will look like transparent plastic hoops. Make two holes on opposite ends of the hoops. The holes should be loose in a cycle spoke.
Place the spoke in one hole of the plastic hoop, and then place the ring magnet. Finally weave the spoke through the other hole of the plastic hoop.
The assembly is over – it is as simple as that. Hold the spoke vertically with the magnet and the hoop at the top. Now let the magnet GO. The magnet and the hoop will spin and come down. The transparent plastic hoop will look like a SOAP BUBBLE. Play again –and have loads of fun. Experiment with two hoops and two magnets. I bet you will love playing with this toy again and again.
