Different Kinds Of Bubbles
Bubbles are around us everyday and most of the time we take them for granted.
Everytime you wash your hands you get soap bubbles, when you boil water or liquid you get bubbles. If you send a fragile item by post you use a bubble envelope, larger items are generally wrapped in bubble wrap.
When you have a bath you use bubble bath, fizzy drinks have gas bubbles, the sea creates bubbles when the surf retreats back into the ocean.
Children can buy small containers with a soapy liquid that allows them to blow bubbles. Kids and adults chew gum and blow bubbles and there are even bubbles in some chocolate bars.
So you see bubbles are part of our everyday life.

Bubble Wrap was created by two engineers, Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes, in 1957. The term is a registered trademark of Sealed Air Corporation (US) which was founded in 1960 by the two inventors, and should theoretically only be used for products of that company.

The first commercially viable bubblegum product seems to have been produced by the Shelby Gum Company of Shelby, Ohio in 1924 and was sold worldwide under the name "Blow Gum" and later as "Blow Bubble".The Fleer company later developed an improved bubblegum, which they marketed under the name Dubble Bubble. The invention of Dubble Bubble is commonly attributed to Walter Diemer, an accountant at Fleer. It has been claimed this story was fabricated in the 1960s by the Fleer company and that the true inventor was Fleer president Gilbert Mustin, who had died by that time, but that Fleer did not want to lose the publicity opportunity. The reason bubblegum is traditionally pink is that it was the original color used by Frank H. Fleer, as it was the only one in stock when he made it.
Up to the 1970s, bubblegum had a tendency to stick to one's face, if given the opportunity. But with the advent of super-soft, non-stick gum like Bubble Yum, Bubblicious and Hubba Bubba, bubble blowing became a less dangerous sport. In the years that followed, the fear of gum sticking to one's face actually ceased to be a cultural phenomenon, despite having been a common humorous reference in entertainment.
Indeed, with the introduction of Bubble Yum, bubblegum became one of the best-selling sweets in the US and soon outpaced Life Savers eponymous flagship candy in annual sales.
The 23 inch (58.24 cm) bubble blown by Susan Montgomery Williams of Fresno, California in 1994 stills holds the Guinness World Record as the largest bubble blown (in 1979, she broke the then-existing 17 inch [43.18 cm] record); on 1 October 2008, Williams died of an aneurysm at age 47. Joyce Samuels of Louisville, Kentucky is the current Guinness World Record Holder for blowing the largest bubblegum bubble from the nose, 16 in (40.64 cm).

- I used to LOVE blowing bubbles. Mostly, I would daydream while doing it, which is what I really enjoyed about that mindless activity. It was something to do with my hands and mouth while my mind worked on made-up stories.
