"It's just pure joy," said Caly Felvus, visiting from Australia. "They're having such a good time and just running around popping the bubbles, so much fun."
Felvus said it’s the kids’ first time visiting.
"If they're happy, we're happy," she said.
It’s a career that Hackett said has brought her purpose.
"There's a lot of sad and crazy things in this world, but something as simple as a bubble brings so much joy to so many people," she said. "It's just like pure happiness."
She gets to fulfill it full-time now, after leaving her 9-to-5 job. She said her biggest joy is creating it for others.
