Bubbles can be effectively used to teach and explore a wide variety of concepts to even young children.  Flexibility, colour formation, reflective or mirrored surfaces, concave and convex surfaces, transparency, a variety of shapes (circle, square, triangle, sphere, cube, tetrahedron, hexagon), elastic properties, and comparative sizing, as well as the more esoteric properties of bubbles listed on this page.  Bubbles are useful in teaching concepts starting from 2 years old and into college years. A Swiss university professor, Dr. Natalie Hartzell, has theorized that the usage of artificial bubbles for entertainment purposes of young children has shown a positive effect in the region of the child's brain that controls motor skills and is responsible for coordination with children exposed to bubbles at a young age showing measurably better motion skills than those who were not.<ref>{{Cite journal | doi = 10.2307/1970949| jstor = 1970949| title = The Structure of Singularities in Soap-Bubble-Like and Soap-Film-Like Minimal Surfaces| journal = The Annals of Mathematics| volume = 103| issue = 3| pages = 489–539| year = 1976| last1 = Taylor | first1 = J.
