"It's time to soak away the stress of 2021 and ring in a happy 2022 with a relaxing bath full of Mr. Bubble," says Michelle Hanson, Vice President of Marketing at the Village Company.

Celebrating 60+ years of Bath-time Bliss

The idea for Mr. Bubble began in 1961 in North Dakota when Harold Schafer and the Gold Seal Company found a way to make bubble baths more affordable, moving them from department stores to drug stores. The original Mr. Bubble formula used powder bubble flakes that promised to make getting clean almost as much fun as getting dirty. The Mr. Bubble brand has been owned by Twin Cities-based The Village Company since 2008, and the signature bubble bath has been reformulated to create even more bubbles with a gentler formula. Mr. Bubble celebrates National Bubble Bath Day every year on Jan. 8^th by giving away bubble bath to deserving individuals. In 2018, Mr. Bubble began partnering with Ronald McDonald House-Upper Midwest and to-date has donated nearly $50k to the organization, supporting families with seriously ill and injured children.
