Bubble Bash Back On New Year's Eve At DuPage Children's Museum

NAPERVILLE, IL — Kids can launch homemade rockets, dance to live DJ music, watch a science show and play in bubbles and confetti to ring in the 2022 New Year when the popular "A Bubble Bash" event returns to DuPage Children's Museum (DCM) Dec. 31.

The fun-filled event's interactive activities include:

• New Year's Eve 2022 countdowns at 11 a.m. and 12:30 p.m. with bubbles, confetti and more

“This event is all about creating memorable experiences, whether families are creating their own musical instruments to make some noise at the countdown or experimenting with fluorescent paint in The Studio,” Chris Berg, Public Programs Manager at DuPage Children’s Museum said in a news release.

Berg added, “Children will have the opportunity to play with our exhibits and also create an array of items to celebrate the new year before our ‘choose your own countdown’ opportunities.”
