The Scrubbing Bubbles are mascots for Scrubbing Bubbles bathroom cleaner from S. C. Johnson & Son. They are anthropomorphic bubbles with brush bristles on their undersides.

They were originally created to promote Dow Bathroom Cleaner; when Dow sold some of its consumer product lines to S.C. Johnson, the cleaner was renamed after its scrubbing mascots. The ad campaign was created by the advertising agency of Della Femina Travisano & Partners.[1].

In the 1970s, the popular commercials featured Paul Winchell, (best known as the voice of Tigger in Winnie the Pooh cartoons), as the voice of the leader of the Scrubbing Bubbles.[2]

In 1995, pranksters at MIT placed Scrubbing Bubbles on the side of the school's Media Lab building to celebrate the Media Lab's tenth anniversary.
