I do I do!

I remember that well, and we may have even had some here and there.
Problem was my mom usually ran the bath water, and thus dispensed the mr. bubble...As we had a water softner she was worried about too many bubbles.
We never EVER had too many(GRRRRR!)
Do they still make that stuff?
 
Not only do I remember it...

I have that same box in my bathroom right now!

"Mr. Bubble makes getting clean as much fun as getting dirty."

I used to swear that the kid on the front of the box was my brother. Wasnt.

Boy do I remember Mr. Bubble! My fave commercial was when the little cartoon kid was in the bubble-filled bathtub. He put bubbles on his head and chin. When grandma walked in he said, "Madam, how do you do?" The Mr. Magoo type granny yells, "There's a man in my bathtub!" Loved it, and loved Mr. Bubble! Like a lot of modern detergents, I believe this is now just produced in liquid form.

When we ran out of Mr. Bubble, my mom would put some powdered Trend in the bath water. She said it was all the same thing anyway. Geez, talk about irritating those mucous membranes!

It's pre 70's I believe

I remember it but don't remember us ever having any. What was that other kids bath foam that came in an aerosol can. You sprayed it on your head, face etc to make hairdo's and beards etc. We never got that either, folks though it was a waste of money.
 
We had Mr. Bubble and another one but I cannot remember the name either. It was a liquid one.

PeteK, what you are thinking of is Crazy Foam, we had that also. It had animal shaped heads on the can tops.

Does anyone remember the soap bars shaped like animals, I think called Fuzzy Wuzzy's. You took them out of the box and they got all fuzzy then when you used them and they got smaller they had a small prize inside them.
 
Nostalgic cleanliness!

I remember those Fuzzy Wuzzies too! We had some blue bears that would fuzz up after you left them on the counter. We also had Crazy Foam. Dad's shaving cream worked just as well!
 
I sure do remember when it first came out and bugged my mom until she got a box of it. What fun!! Terry
 
Mr. Bubble

Gawwd...I drove my mother crazy wanting this stuff. It must have been that the box looked like a detergent box. She tells me that literally the first word that I ever read was "Tide", they should have known!
 
Mr Bubble never appealed to Ma or me

but once in a while, she'd get Capri bubbling bath oil....but I haven't looked back on any of those since I found Vitabath!

I remember Mr. Bubble from my early childhood ('80s). It's still around, but I haven't seen the powder form in a long time.

Someone mentioned aerosol bath foam. I remember that, too. It came in colors and made the bathwater all murky, and it was very, very cold on your skin.
 
Oh I remember that stuff. It was so fun cause it was soooo bubbley, I also had Mr.Bubble tattos :-D until my mom said it would hurt my agitator. :-) ;-) :-) ;-) :-)
 
MY BATHTIME DETERGENT!

Ok so this is far more than iever thought i'd share but I used to have an old agitator that I'd take into the tub with me when I was little -this was THE PERFECT detergent for my bathtime washing machine and I LOVED MR.BUBBLE! I always used it but my sisters couldn't as they were sensitive in the unspeakables...

I might bid on this box as the little boy on the cover reminds me of ME!
 
the other one

pararunner58: Soaky was the other one. A liquid bubble bath that came in cartoon character bottles. I have seen some of them in antique stores for $25.00 EMPTY...."Soaky soaks you clean in an ocean full of fun. Flubbity bubbity, flibbity fubbity, clean before your done"...........
 
another verse

Glad someone else remembered more of the song...that was the only verse I could remember, but I knew there was more to it, and I sure soaked in it many, many times....Sure wish I had saved some of the toys.
 
checked out the links and remember the Rocky and Bulwinkle Soaky containers.Those I remember as a kid-used to soak in the stuff as well-My Mom then beleived-you can't soak that dirt off 'em-got to scrub it off!!I loved the Soaky baths anyway was kinda fun.As a side benefit-would think our splashing in the tub to make MORE suds-would only get the bathroom floor and other things clean!!
 
"It will bubble your nose and bubble your skin. It's so much fun when you hop in with.....Mr. Bubble"

[Editor's note: just add the word "butt" at the end and we are all set.]

LOL
 
Ha, hop in the tub with Mr. Bubble indeed!

I vaguely recall having some kind of bubble bath around when I was a kid, and having to rinse off after using it. I think the point of such things is to give kids a reason to want to get in the tub, which some of 'em might otherwise resist.

If you get nostalgic for things that will grow all manner of blue fuzz, you can always take a hunk of bread or a roll, and stick it in the soap dish, and wait 'til the fuzzy blue mould starts to grow all over it... (eewww!)

/me ducks & runs!
