blowing bubbles-developemental age

So my almost 3yo tries so hard to blow bubbles. I try to model what I do with my mouth since he sinks his teeth into his bottom lip. He definitely has success at times but its not consistent. I know practice makes perfect but is this just one of those skills you see happen more at a certain age/stage?

    My almost 2 year old just figured it out today. I think she figured it out by practicing. She also loves to blow the dandelion seeds. She only gets it about 10% of the time, but is improving daily.

    I don't remember when it happened with my kid - somewhere between 2 and 3, though.

    My DD has oral sensory issues and could not figure out how to blow.  We worked on using straws to blow and then taking the straw away slowly.  We would use a straw to blow a feather across a table and take the feather away to see if she could match what she'd done with her mouth.  It took her a bit too figure out but this was a huge help.  She was probably just over 2.5 when we started working on this.
