Meet me in Minneapolis for Mr. Bubble’s 50th Birthday Bash!!!

My kids LOVE bubble baths — and since Mr. Bubble sent us a batch of Bubble Bath and Foam Soap, my kids have been soaking and playing in the tub for hours each night!

Olivia-Mr-Bubble-collage

This Saturday, my nine year old son Jackson and I will be in Minneapolis for Mr. Bubbles 50th Birthday Bash! Sadly, I have to leave Olivia home so she can attend the dress rehearsal for her ballet recital on Sunday. (Jackson and I are catching a late night flight home to be at her performance on Sunday!)

It is too bad Olivia will miss this MASSIVE Bubble Bash at the incredible Waterpark of America in Bloomington, MN. I know Jackson will have a BLAST — and I so hope that some of you who live in Minneapolis can come out to party bubble-style with us!

Mr. Bubble – childhood icon for 50 years

For 50 years, Mr. Bubble has been making kids smile and “Making getting clean as much fun as getting dirty!” To celebrate 50 wonderful years as an iconic brand and best selling bubble bath, Mr. Bubble is throwing this huge birthday bash – and Jackson and I are flying out for the party in the morning!

Mr. Bubble 50th Birthday Bash


Mr. Bubble’s birthday bash
will be held June 11, 2011 at the Waterpark of America in Bloomington, MN, from 10:00 AM to 2:00 PM. If you are in the Bloomington area, we’d love to see you there. Everyone is invited to the party! Ticket information and hotel reservations can be made through www.waterparkofamerica.com. Located near Mall of America, inside the Radisson Hotel Bloomington, Waterpark of America is the country’s biggest indoor water park hotel.

Mr. Bubble will set a record by creating the World’s Largest Bubble Bath in the 2,800-square foot bubble bath play area (which features an 8-foot high, 20-foot wide bathtub). The party will also include birthday cake, a bubble beard contest and a chance to get your picture taken with Mr. Bubble. Prizes will be given out throughout the day.

$50 Mr. Bubble Giveaway

Can’t make it to the birthday party? We’d love to bring the celebration to you!

We’re giving away a $50 Mr. Bubble gift basket to one lucky reader (US readers, only please.) Please note — the Mr. Bubble images to the right and at the top are only samples of what will be included in the gift basket.

To enter, leave a comment on this post. Feel free to share some of your Mr. Bubble memories with us!

The giveaway will end on June 24, and a winner will be announced on June 25. Open to residents of the US only. Please see our site’s terms and conditions for more information.

    I loved Mr Bubble as a kid. Now my two children love it as well. As soon as I start the bath my daughter finds the bottle and says “Bubble! Bubble!” over and over until I add some. The bubbles sure do make it more funto get clean. Even when they are playing in the dirt & mud outside, when I say time for a bubble bath, they run to get inside.

    When my kids were younger, Mr. Bubbles was part of the daily ritual. I would add the color dyes that Avon uses in their bathtime wall painting sets and make some colored bubbles for the kids which they loved (mind you, the color was not great, but I think they really appreciated the effort!)
