A method of generating a bubble that encloses a smaller bubble inside, comprising:
- providing a first bubble ring that is positioned inside a second larger bubble ring;
- coupling the bubble rings for movement adjacent an air generator;
- and
- moving the first and second bubble rings together in a lateral manner past the air generator where:
- (i) a first portion of the second bubble ring first passes in front of the air generator;
- (ii) the first bubble ring completely passes in front of the air generator while a second portion of the second bubble ring is also passing in front of the air generator;
- and
- (iii) a third portion of the second bubble ring passes in front of an air generator.
