for some deep-freeze fun! \u00a0When I saw my friend Kat&#8217;s post about her <a href=\"http:\/\/www.katforder.com\/2014\/01\/07\/frozen-bubbles-new-year-goals\/\" target=\"_blank\">frozen bubble experiment<\/a> today, I had to try it for myself! \u00a0Even more fun than the fact that the bubbles freeze and break is looking that the amazing crystal structure. \u00a0Unfortunately, I didn&#8217;t get the opportunity to try this out until after the kids were asleep, but with temps holding in the teens overnight &#8211; I&#8217;m pretty sure they&#8217;ll still be there when they get up in the morning. \u00a0Motivation to get out of bed on cold days like this is a good thing!<\/p>\n<p><a
