science what we learnt about the Bunsen burner

in science we have been useing the Bunsen burner and we learnt that if you put something in the blue flame in the center it burns a lot easier and the big yellow flame is the safety flame.today we used water with gas in it and it would make bubbles and  we would have to wash our hands with water then pick the gas bubbles up.  Then we set the bubbles on fire it would burst into flames in our hands it was so cool.
